Considering the lack of robustness in European preparedness for biotoxin incidents, potentially occurring from bioterrorism action, the European Union entrusted the new European project EuroBioTox to develop and validate improved analytical tools, reagents and standard operating procedures based on realistic incident scenarios. The project, which started up in June 2017 for five years, benefits from the CEA expertise in immunoanalysis and mass spectrometry.

Encoding information in the spin of a single electron, or hole, using proven microelectronic technology is the first objective of the European project MOS-QUITO. Thanks to the production of a dual-gate silicon MOS transistor, allowing for the initialisation, manipulation and reading of the spin of a hole using two quantum dots in series, MOS-QUITO paved the way towards large-scale integration of quantum bits.

Predicting wind and sunlight intensity or stabilizing plasma in a nuclear fusion reactor are some of the multiple challenges to tackle in order to diversify our energy mix. They rely heavily on high performance computing (HPC). Situated at the crossroads of HPC and energy transition, the European Energy-Oriented Center of Excellence, or EoCoE, intends to provide high-end expertise in applied mathematics and HPC.
