SUMMARY:Moritz SENGER (Université d’Uppsala\, Département de chimie pour les sciences de la vie\, Suède)
DESCRIPTION:From Catalysis to Sensing : Proton Transfer in [FeFe]-hydrogenases\nRésumé : \nEnzymes are natures catalysts enabling challenging reactions at ambient conditions and at low overpotentials. In particular\, [FeFe]-hydrogenases which catalyse bidirectional H2 turnover (2e- + 2H+ <-> H2) at high turnover numbers raise interest for their application in a green hydrogen economy. In [FeFe]-hydrogenases catalysis takes place at a unique diiron cofactor that is equipped with carbon monoxide (CO) and cyanide (CN) ligands. They serve as intrinsic infrared active probes sensitive to redox changes located directly at the centre of the catalytic reaction. This in isolation inactive di-iron cofactor becomes efficient H2 catalyst when incorporated into the [FeFe]-hydrogenase protein scaffold. More recently H2 sensing [FeFe]-hydrogenases have been characterised using the identical cofactor but for H2 sensing. The fundamental design principles of the protein scaffolds to selectively tune cofactor function either to efficient H2 catalyst or to H2 sensor remain unknown.Here we use organic dyes to artificially activate catalytic [1-2] and sensory [3-5] [FeFe]-hydrogenases photochemically and investigate them via in situ ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Following changes of the cofactor CO and CN ligands\, single carboxylic acid residues and collective amide I modes\, we show that protein scaffold differences are not limited to the cofactor second coordination sphere but extend through the whole protein via proton transfer pathways\, secondary structure changes and most likely dimerization events. More general\, our results give a first idea how protein scaffolds can tune cofactor functions. \nReferences :[1] M. Senger\, V. Eichmann\, K. Laun\, J. Duan\, F. Wittkamp\, G. Knor\, U. P.

SUMMARY:Matteo MILANI (ESPCI Paris)
DESCRIPTION:Rheofluidics: single-drop oscillatory rheology with microfluidics\nRésumé : \nThe measurement of frequency-dependent viscoelastic moduli is of paramount importance in many fields\, from material science to biology\, and is typically accomplished in bulk materials using commercial rheometers. The trend towards miniaturization in the biotechnology\, manufacturing and chemical processing industries has motivated the extension of viscoelastic measurements to microscopic objects with well-defined shape and size such as droplets\, vesicles\, microcapsules\, or even single cells. For instance\, local mechanical probes such as AFM nanoindentation can be used to probe single-cell stiffness\, and micropipette aspiration probes the interfacial properties of droplets and vesicles. Despite their versatility\, these techniques are characterized by complex deformation geometries and a relatively low throughput\, which makes them unfit to sample highly heterogeneous populations such as those typical of biological samples. To this end\, novel microfluidic approaches have been recently developed to measure the stiffness of cells and droplets flowing through narrow channels. These approaches are well-suited for applications requiring a high throughput\, but they lack the fine control of stress and strain required by quantitative mechanical measurements. Here\, we present a novel technique called Rheofluidics\, which combines the high throughput of microfluidics with the versatility of traditional rheological probes. Like a stress-controlled rheometer\, Rheofluidics measures the time-dependent deformation of droplets subject to a well-defined hydrodynamic stress\, whose time evolution is controlled by the shape of the microfluidic channel in which the droplets are flowing. To validate this approach and to demonstrate the power of this technique\, we study the linear and nonlinear rheology of oil droplets\, hydrogel beads and lipid vesicles\, extracting their viscoelastic properties with a throughput more than 1000 times higher than that of standard rheology. \nContact : gwennou.coupier@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr

SUMMARY:Ran TAO  (Institut Néel)
DESCRIPTION:Magnetic excitations in LuFe2Ge2\nRésumé : \nThe iron-based superconductor YFe2Ge2 (Tc ~ 1.8 K)[1] has attracted interest due to strong electronic correlations[2] and shows enhanced magnetic fluctuations in neutron scattering[3]. Its isoelectronic and isostructural sister compound LuFe2Ge2 orders antiferromagnetically below TN ~ 6.8 K\, and in clean crystals shows a resistive superconducting transition below 1 K. We present recent inelastic neutron scattering experiments on LuFe2Ge2 in the ordered and paramagnetic phases. The excitations are modelled with linear spin wave theory\, and we note some similarities to previous results in paramagnetic YFe2Ge2. \n[1] J. Chen et al.\, Phys. Rev.

SUMMARY:Marco MACCARINI (chercheur UGA)
DESCRIPTION:Exploring the Nanostructure of Biomimetic Membranes\nRésumé : \nModel lipid membranes are simplified yet powerful systems that mimic key features of biological plasma membranes—the essential envelopes that define and protect living cells. Their controlled simplicity makes them ideal for precise experimental techniques\, enabling us to explore their interactions with novel nanoengineered materials. \nWhen combined with biological components like proteins\, these membranes not only deepen our understanding of fundamental biological processes but also serve as building blocks for advanced nanoengineered materials with tailored technological applications. \nIn this seminar\, I will present examples from my research\, where laboratory techniques\, large-scale facility analyses\, and computational methods converge to provide in-depth characterization and mechanistic insights into membrane behavior. These findings hold significant potential for advancements in health\, biotechnology\, and fundamental biology. \nShort Bio/CV\nAs  a CNRS Chargé de Recherche\, I’ve recently joined the LMGP to continue my research journey in this scientific new environment. My academic path has taken me across borders—starting with a Physics degree in Italy\, followed by a PhD in Polymer Physics in England\, and postdoctoral experiences in Germany and Canada. Along the way\, I’ve had the privilege of working at world-class facilities like the Institut Laue Langevin\, where I deepened my expertise in large-scale scientific infrastructure. I now continue this work at LMGP\, where my research focuses on the intersection of physics\, materials science\, and biomimetic systems. \nContact : deborah.verger@grenoble-inp.fr

SUMMARY:Viviana RICON MONTES & Andreas OFFENHÄUSSER (Forschungszentrum Jülich\, Allemagne)
DESCRIPTION:Devices that interact with the brain: from nanostructured to flexible electrodes\nRésumé : \nNeural electrodes are the core components of neuroelectronic devices\, enabling the recording and simulation of neural activity. Our research focuses on two primary areas : (1) the design and\ncharacterization of the neuron-electrode interface\, and (2) the development of flexible neural interfaces for both in vivo and in vitro applications. Microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are commonly used to bridge the interface between neurons and electronic systems. However\, current MEAs face limita7ons in signal fidelity\, precision of neural modulation\, and long-term biocompatibility. To address these challenges\, we are developing nanomaterial-based MEAs that offer enhanced physical and chemical properties\, leading to improved cell-electrode coupling. Specifically\, we have engineered a hybrid structure combining vertical nanostraws with nanocavities\, enabling stable\, non-invasive\, and long-term recording at sub-threshold resolution. \nImplantable neural prosthetic devices provide direct access to local neural circuits and are critical components of brain-machine interfaces. While current clinical-grade devices—typically based on silicon or noble metals—have driven significant advances\, they oPen fail to sustain reliable neural communication over extended periods. Our goal is to create next-generation neurotechnologies that integrate seamlessly with biological tissue\, supporting multimodal neural interrogation through electrical\, optical\, or chemical means. We are actively exploring novel device architectures\, materials\, and implantation strategies\, alongside rigorous performance evaluation\, with the ultimate aim of enabling both acute and chronic in vivo applications. Our approach combines thin-film technology and surface micromachining processes with additive manufacturing techniques\, including two-photon lithography. These are integrated with self-\naligned\, template-assisted electrodeposition processes\, kirigami-inspired designs with matched-die forming\, novel bonding methods\, and the modular stacking of two-dimensional neural probes with key-lock systems. These technologies support versatile applications\, ranging from investigating seizure-like activity in in vitro epilepsy models to advancing visual prosthesis that enable bidirectional communication along the visual pathway. \nContact : clement.hebert@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr

SUMMARY:Dalila BOUNOUA (LLB)
DESCRIPTION:Polarized Neutrons Reveal Altermagnetism in MnF2\nRésumé : \nAltermagnets constitute a recently identified class of collinear\, magnetically compensated materials in which oppositely oriented magnetic sublattices cannot be mapped onto each other  another by a primitive lattice translation or inversion operation. Unlike conventional antiferromagnets\, altermagnets break time-reversal symmetry. These distinctive symmetry properties give rise to spin-split electronic bands and chirality-split magnon branches\, both exhibiting characteristic anisotropic patterns in momentum space\, even in the absence of relativistic spin-orbit coupling [1].\nExperimental evidence for spin-split electronic bands has been reported in materials such as MnTe and CrSb using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) [2\,3]\, while resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) has revealed chiral magnon excitations in CrSb [4]. Polarized neutron scattering\, however\, provides a unique probe of altermagnetism\, as it enables a direct characterization of spin-wave excitations and allows both split magnons [5-7] and their associated chirality [8-10] to be measured simultaneously.\nIn this work\, we investigated the chirality-split magnon spectrum of MnF₂ [9] using polarized inelastic neutron scattering (INS). Our measurements reveal\, for the first time in MnF₂\, a small but clearly resolvable splitting of the magnon branches\, primarily driven by long-range dipolar interactions. Polarization analysis on a magnetically domain-biased sample further uncovers a finite chiral contribution to the neutron scattering cross section\, which reverses sign between the two split magnon modes. These observations provide direct spectroscopic evidence of altermagnetism in MnF₂. \n[1] G. L. Smejkal et al.\, Phys. Rev. X 12\, 040501 (2022).\n[2] J.

SUMMARY:Kilian FRABOULET (Max Planck Institute Stuttgart)
DESCRIPTION:Competing orders in many-electron systems: a renormalization group perspective\nRésumé :  \nThe renormalization group is an established approach to study quantum many-body systems\, and this applies especially to one of its modern implementations known as the functional renormalization group (fRG). In particular\, the fRG constitutes a flexible and unbiased tool for the study of competing orders. In this talk\, I will outline recent progress in this direction for correlated electron systems. To this end\, I will first discuss the competition between antiferromagnetism\, charge density waves and superconductivity in the 2D Hubbard model\, thus making a connection with high-temperature superconductors. The special role of bosonization methods will be emphasized along the way. I will also show how the fRG can be combined with dynamical mean-field theory to treat strongly interacting regimes\, with a focus on d-wave superconductivity. As a next step\, I will increase the complexity of the model by including non-local interactions and discuss unconventional superconductivity in an extended Hubbard model with a connection to moiré materials. Special consideration will also be given to the treatment of retarded interactions with electron-phonon couplings. Finally\, I will highlight recent fRG studies of quantum criticality in Dirac materials\, with a connection to graphene. \nContact : serge.florens@neel.cnrs.fr

SUMMARY:Carlo PIFFERI (Centre de Biophysique Moléculaire\, Orléans)
DESCRIPTION:Exploiting disulfide-rich peptides as protein epitope mimics : development of a generalizable conjugation approach for immunogen preparation\nRésumé : \nGeneration of specific antibodies against peptides by immunization requires their covalent conjugation to protein carriers to override their inherently weak immunogenicity. The vast majority of bioconjugation approaches to achieve peptide-protein constructs rely on thiol-maleimide chemistry1 and capitalize on a wide array of commercial maleimide-functionalized protein carriers. Disulfide-rich peptides2 (DRPs) possess a rigid\, constrained structure that makes them ideal for designing synthetic mimics of protein regions/domains. For bioconjugation purposes\, the introduction of a single spare thiol moiety into a linear peptide antigen is straightforward\, while DRPs’ disulfide bonds are prone to intramolecular thiophilic attack by the reactive thiolate. This unintended reactivity competes with the desired Michael addition to the maleimide moiety\, ultimately disrupting the native disulfide bridging framework. As a result\, DRP’s tertiary structure will be altered\, affording an immunogen that is a poor mimic of the native target. Although a few studies have explored the late-stage introduction of thiol-containing cross-linkers onto DRP antigens for their conjugation onto protein carriers\,3\,4 the stability of DRP’s disulfide pattern in the presence of an extra thiol has never been examined. To address this\, we systematically evaluated the influence of different spacers in “DRP-spacer-thiol” constructs\, under thiol-maleimide reaction conditions.5 Our results highlight how both linker length and flexibility are key to maintain DRP disulfides unaltered\, providing a general approach to achieve DRP bioconjugation by thiol-maleimide chemistry. We have applied our approach to a small DRP predicted to closely mimic a surface-accessible epitope of the full LINGO-1 protein\, and obtained a very specific antibody response upon immunization: the resulting polyclonal IgG was able to selectively bind the full-length protein in a cellular context\, with stringent selectivity across its four homologs. \nReferences : \n1.

SUMMARY:Marek BARTKOWIAK (Paul Scherrer Institut)
DESCRIPTION:Spin-orbit control of antiferromagnetic domains without a Zeeman coupling\nRésumé : \nEncoding information in antiferromagnetic (AFM) domains is a promising solution for the ever growing demand in magnetic storage capacity. The absence of a macroscopic magnetization avoids crosstalk between different domain states\, enabling ultrahigh density spintronics while being detrimental to the domain detection and manipulation. Disentangling these merits and disadvantages seemed so far unattainable. We report evidence for a new AFM domain selection mechanism based on non Zeeman susceptibility anisotropy induced by the relative orientation of external magnetic fields to the k-domains. Consequently\, the charge transport response is controlled by the rotation of the magnetic field and a pronounced anisotropic magnetoresistance is found in the AFM phase of bulk materials Nd$_{1−x}$Ce$_x$xCoIn$_5$. Our results and the domain switching theory indicate that this constitutes a new effect which might be universal across multiband materials. It provides a novel mechanism to control and detect AFM domains\, opening new perspectives for AFM sprintronics. \nContact : andrew.fefferman@neel.cnrs.fr

SUMMARY:François PARMENTIER (Laboratoire de physique de l'école normale supérieure)
DESCRIPTION:Quantized heat flow in the Hofstadter butterfly\nRésumé : \nWhen subjected to a strong magnetic field\, electrons on a two-dimensional lattice acquire a fractal energy spectrum called Hofstadter’s butterfly. In addition to its unique recursive structure\, the Hofstadter butterfly is intimately linked to non-trivial topological orders\, hosting a cascade of ground states characterized by non-zero topological invariants. These states\, called Chern insulators\, are usually understood as replicas of the ground states of the quantum Hall effect\, with electrical and thermal conductances that should be quantized\, reflecting their topological order. The Hofstadter butterfly is now commonly observed in van-der-Waals heterostructures-based moiré superlattices. However\, its thermal properties\, particularly the quantized heat flow expected in the Chern insulators\, have not been investigated\, potentially questioning their similarity with standard quantum Hall states. Here we probe the heat transport properties of the Hofstadter butterfly\, obtained in a graphene / hexagonal boron nitride moiré superlattice. We observe a quantized heat flow\, uniquely set by the topological invariant\, for all investigated states of the Hofstadter butterfly: quantum Hall states\, Chern insulators\, and even symmetry-broken Chern insulators emerging from strong electronic interactions. Our work firmly establishes the universality of the quantization of heat transport and its intimate link with topology. A.

SUMMARY:Tymoteusz TULA (LPMMC\, CNRS\, Grenoble)
DESCRIPTION:One-to-one correspondence between two-point correlators and entanglement in magnetic systems\nRésumé : \nThere are multiple measures of multipartite entanglement — including entanglement in thermal mixtures — currently used to study many-body interacting systems. Recently\, Quantum Fisher Information has been proposed as a multipartite entanglement measure that can be connected to experimentally accessible observables. In this talk\, I will present our recent findings about a one-to-one correspondence between two-point correlators and a certain general class of Heisenberg-like Hamiltonians and wavefunctions. This is a foundation of our claim that a mapping from finite-temperature observables to any entanglement measure exists for such systems. Furthermore\, I will present our results of training a convolutional neural network (CNN) to recognize and predict the entanglement for one-dimensional anisotropic XY and XYZ models\, which exhibit an entanglement transition. From our preliminary results we found that entanglement can be accurately predicted by a CNN using both static and dynamical correlators\, even when the network is trained on only a fraction of the full dataset or on data from a different system than the one used for prediction. Specifically\, when trained on observables from an anisotropic XY model\, accurate predictions can be achieved using only about 3% (6%) of the data when employing dynamical two-point correlators (structure factors) for learning. \nContact : pierre.nataf@lpmmc.cnrs.fr

SUMMARY:Peter DAHLBERG (Stanford University\, USA)
DESCRIPTION:Fluorescence-guided cryogenic FIB milling and their application to the study of the NLRP3 inflammasome\nRésumé : \nNumerous critical events in cell biology depend on rare ( 1 copy per cell) and small (<500 nm in diameter) structures. Observation of these processes at high resolution using cryogenic electron tomography (CryoET) presents challenges\, as the structures must first be precisely targeted within thin sections through focused ion beam milling. In this presentation\, I will introduce my group’s work on a tri-coincident system that integrates light\, ion\, and electron microscopy at a single focal point. This approach enables real-time monitoring of the milling process and makes two different modes of guidance possible that require no addition of fluorescent fiducials or image registration and whose accuracy far exceeds the optical diffraction limit. I will discuss both guidance modes in detail and then describe their application to the study of the in situ structure of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Despite its central role in innate immunity as a master regulator responsible for proinflammatory cytokine maturation and cell death\, its in situ structure has remained elusive due to challenges in capturing the small singular punctum it forms per cell in thin sections compatible with CryoET — precisely the kind of target the tri-coincident system was developed for. Using our guidance approach\, our cryo-tomograms revealed that the NLRP3 inflammasome forms a dense condensate within and around the microtubule-organizing center. At a later stage after activation\, we saw further growth of the condensate\, and the cells underwent pyroptosis with widespread mitochondrial damage and autophagy. Our study revealed new insights into NLRP3 structure and other organelle alterations during inflammation. \nContact : ibs.seminaires@ibs.fr

SUMMARY:Martha MERROW (LMU Munich\, Germany)
DESCRIPTION:A circadian clock in Bacillus subtilis\nRésumé : \nThe circadian clock is a molecular machine that is present in each one of our cells\, directing diverse processes in a cell(developmentally)-specific manner. The natural state of the clock is ‘entrainment’\, namely through synchronization with zeitgeber signals (such as the light/dark cycle) in the environment. Once moved to constant conditions\, a free running rhythm of approximately 24h can be observed\, demonstrating the endogenous nature of the clock. One can understand how the clock relates to our lives by noting the timing of the sleep wake cycle: this is determined by the interaction of the biological (circadian) oscillator and the external zeitgeber cycle. Disrupting the clock in humans and mice leads to increased cancers\, metabolic disease and decreased cognitive performance\, likely through misexpression of key regulators. The circadian clock is an essential aspect of biology and its function can be regarded as a biophysical phenomenon. \nCircadian clocks have been described in all kingdoms of life except for the Eubacteria – until very recently. I will discuss the circadian clock in the model prokaryote\, Bacillus subtilis. We observe rhythms in gene expression\, in colony morphology on agar\, and in metabolism and in planktonic cultures. The circadian transcriptome shows pervasive regulation of gene expression by the biological clock\, even more extensively than sigma factors. The clock is thus a major regulatory phenomenon in this bacterium. Our work begs the questions ‘what is the same as clocks in higher organisms?’ and ‘what is different?’. \nContact : irina.mihalcescu@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr

SUMMARY:Klaus MØLMER (Niels Bohr Institute\, University of Copenhagen)
DESCRIPTION:Quantum optics with radiation on the move\nRésumé : \nWith the scaling of quantum technologies to many separate material quantum components\, we may have to couple these systems by propagating quantum radiation\, in the form of light\, microwaves or phonons. There are\, however\, rather fundamental obstacles to the treatment of propagation of quantum radiation and its interaction with matter. These obstacles include the general multimode character of propagating fields and the duration and spatial extent of useful light and microwave pulses. The talk will review a recent theoretical approach to deal theoretically with these obstacles\, and it will present examples of new\, unforeseen\, possibilities for easy preparation and manipulation “on the fly” of quantum states of light and matter. \nCoffee and croissants will be offered after the colloquium in front of the room ! \nPersonne à contacter : Michele Filippone (michele.filippone@cea.fr)

DESCRIPTION:Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in Alzheimer’s Disease : Insights from the European Synchrotron\nRésumé : \n\nAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder increasingly linked to defects in mitochondrial bioenergetics. At the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF)\, we investigate the structural and functional mechanisms that underlie mitochondrial dysfunction in AD\, with a focus on respiratory complex I\, a central player in cellular energy production [1\,2]. \nUsing an integrative biology approach\, we combine macromolecular crystallography\, cryo-electron microscopy\, X-ray imaging\, and spectroscopy to analyse the architecture and regulation of mitochondrial complex I and its assembly factors (MCIA proteins) across spatial and temporal scales. Our structural and functional studies reveal novel regulatory mechanisms of energy metabolism\, including phosphorylation-dependent modulation at the interface of respiration and fatty acid oxidation. Importantly\, we demonstrate that AD-related amyloid oligomers disrupt these regulatory processes within neuronal mitochondria\, thereby contributing to oxidative stress and impaired bioenergetics in AD [3\,4]. Recent synchrotron-based imaging\, including X-ray fluorescence and nano-tomography\, has further provided first insights into the ultrastructure of mitochondrial assemblies in situ. \nCollectively\, these findings highlight how the ESRF’s interdisciplinary\, state-of-the-art methodologies enable breakthroughs in deciphering the molecular basis of neurodegeneration\, offering new perspectives for diagnostic markers and therapeutic strategies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease. \n[1] Giachin et al.

SUMMARY:Rebeca RIBEIRO (C2N\, Paris-Saclay)
DESCRIPTION:Twist-Angle-Controlled Anomalous Gating in Bilayer Graphene/BN Heterostructures\nRésumé : \nAnomalous gating effects—such as gate ineffectiveness and pronounced hysteresis—have been observed in graphene-based systems encapsulated in boron nitride (BN) and linked to a possible ferroelectric state. However\, their origin\, stability\, and reproducibility remain under debate. During this talk\, I will present charge transport experiments in dual-gated\, dynamically rotatable van der Waals heterostructures based on bilayer graphene encapsulated in BN. Remarkably\, the angular degree of freedom acts as an ON/OFF switch for the anomalous gating response. We show that the angular alignment between the two BN layers is the key parameter governing these effects. Both gate ineffectiveness and hysteresis are highly sensitive to small angular changes\, and they clearly change in behavior\, which we classify into three distinct regimes. \nContact : florence.levy-bertrand@neel.cnrs.fr

SUMMARY:Matthieu RAYNAL (Sorbonne Université\, CNRS\, Institut Parisien de Chimie Moléculaire (IPCM))
DESCRIPTION:Supramolecular helical catalysts : chirality induction and beyond\nRésumé : \nHelices are commonly formed by symmetry breaking operating during the bottom-up assembly of small molecules or monomers and their sense of rotation can be controlled by various methods. Important progress has been made in controlling the chiral and structural properties of supramolecular discrete assemblies and polymers.[1] Benzene-1\,3\,5- tricarboxamide[2] (BTA) are ubiquitous synthons for the preparation of hydrogen-bonded helices but it remains to be demonstrated how a given macroscopic property\, notably related to chirality (e.g. chiroptical\, magnetic\, catalytic)\, can be affected by tuning the structure of these supramolecular polymers or copolymers. We demonstrated that the supramolecular chirality of BTA assemblies can be transferred to intrinsically achiral metal centres (Rh\, Cu) located at their periphery.[3] How the selectivity of a catalytic reaction of reference can be affected by the nature of the monomers\, the presence of metal centres\, and the addition of achiral additives will be particularly discussed.[4] Not only a fine tuning of the chirality of the supramolecular assemblies but also a proper control of their dynamicity is key to address important challenges. We recently disclose the possibility to select one major (70%-79%) amongst four possible stereoisomers of an amino alcohol by applying the supramolecular helical catalyst in either concomitant (with no inversion of catalyst handedness) or sequential (with inversion of catalyst handedness) hydrosilylation and hydroamination reactions [5]. \nReferences : \n[1] Yashima E. et al.

SUMMARY:Chrystel GENOUD (EPFL\, Lausane\, Suisse)
DESCRIPTION:Understanding tissue by volumeEM – some examples from an EM platform\nSéminaire dans le cadre de la Journée Microscopie Electronique \nRésumé : \nUnderstanding the complex architecture of cells and tissues requires imaging technologies that can bridge the gap between ultrastructural details and large-volume context in room temperature and cryo-EM. Volume electron microscopy (volume EM) addresses this need by enabling 3D imaging of biological samples at nanometer resolution over tens to hundreds of microns. In this presentation\, I will provide an overview of volume EM techniques available on our platform based on examples and how we combine it with correlative light and electron microscopy.I will also show how we are adressing the targeting of small structures in lare tissue in cryo-ET by using the serial lift-out method and cryo-CLEM. The example of targeting the Casparian strip in the root of Arabidopsis thaliana will be developed. \nContact : ibs.seminaires@ibs

DESCRIPTION:Neutron and x-rays scattering on quantum magnets at high pressures and low temperatures\nRésumé : \nApplication of external pressure acts as clean tuning parameter of inter-atomic distances and bond angles and therefor allows for precise control of magnetic interactions in condensed matter. Extreme conditions can thus be used to stabilize novel quantum phases and drive systems close to quantum criticality where new and exciting phenomena are expected. Within this seminar I will show how recent advances in neutron and x-ray scattering allows to access fingerprints of quantum correlations and present novel results on quantum magnets at the extreme. \n_ \nArno Hiezz (College 4 Secretary) \nExternal visitors may ask for a site access to tellier(at)ill.fr \n

SUMMARY:Chloé ROFFAY (IMP Vienna\, Austria)
DESCRIPTION:Uncovering the forces driving the fate and shape of the extraembryonic amnion during human gastrulation\nRésumé : \nExtraembryonic tissues provide key molecular signals and mechanical support to the growing embryo. For instance\, the extraembryonic amnion\, which forms a fluid-filled sac surrounding the embryo\, was recently shown to trigger germ layer specification during gastrulation\, by secreting BMP ligands. Despite the key roles of extraembryonic tissues in embryo development\, little is still known regarding their molecular and biophysical programs\, particularly in human. Using a 2D stem cell-based model of human gastrulation\, termed gastruloid discs\, we found that amnion cells undergo a sharp columnar-to-squamous transition concomitantly with fate specification. Via biophysical modelling\, direct force measurements\, pharmacological and genetic perturbations\, we showed that this morphogenetic transition is amnion-intrinsic and it is driven by active wetting\, i.e. a transition from tensile to adhesion-dominated cellular states. Molecularly\, active wetting is implemented via a rewiring of cytoskeleton composition\, from actomyosin to keratin-based cytoskeletal networks\, akin to a bistable toggle-switch in gene regulatory networks. Strikingly\, blocking shape changes at the colony edge results both in defective cellular states in the amnion and impaired gastruloid disc morphogenesis within the embryonic compartment. Together\, our findings establish that a cytoskeletal toggle switch couples fate specification to tissue architecture in the human amnion and suggest an unexpectedly active mechanical role for extraembryonic tissues in shaping the embryo proper. \nContact : thomas.boudou@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr

SUMMARY:Stéphanie ROCCIA (LPSC-CNRS/UGA\, GRENOBLE)
DESCRIPTION:The search for neutron electric dipole moment at PSI\nRésumé : \nThe Universe and its history are simultaneously very well understood and still a big mystery. We have amazing tools from satellites to\nobservatories to weight the universe over its history. But the components of the Universe can simply not yet be explained by physicists. To get the full picture\, we need to identify and understand the interactions at play throughout the life of the Universe. This is the meeting point between particle physics and cosmology. At this meeting point stands the neutron\, a common particle that we can uniquely use in high precision experiments.\nI will present how experiments searching for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) aim at discovering new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model of particle physics and understanding the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. The quest for the neutron electric dipole moment started more than sixty years ago. In recent experiments\, polarized ultra-cold neutrons are stored in material bottles.\nI will present the ongoing efforts at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland where the n2EDM spectrometer has taken the first “physics data” in 2025. A large fraction of this dataset is dedicated to measurements of the UCN spectrum. I will present the newest UCN spectroscopy techniques that were recently published and the reasons for the importance of a deep understanding of the UCN spectrum. \n— \nHanno Filter (College 3 Secretary) \nExternal visitors may ask for a site access to tellier(at)ill.fr \nZoom link : https://ill.zoom.us/j/98964195699?pwd=vPhNT17CAeoDUr7QX4PjfyPnWsHuMU.1 – Password : SeminarC3

SUMMARY:Sander VAN SMAALEN (Laboratory of Crystallography\, Bayerisches Geoinstitut\, University of Bayreuth)
DESCRIPTION:Chiral charge density waves in EuAl4 and related compounds\nRésumé : \nThe BaAl 4 structure type has centrosymmetric\, tetragonal symmetry\, I4/mmm\, with three crystallographically independent atom sites: Ba\, Al1 and Al2. Solid solution series RAl 4-x Gax (R= Eu\, Sr\, Ca\, Ba; 0 < x < 4) crystallize in this structure type [1]\, where Ga preferably occupies the Al2 site. Accordingly\, complete chemical order is found for x = 0\, 2\, 4. Incommensurate charge-density waves (CDWs) have been observed in several of these ordered compounds. For the other values of x\, lack of chemical order leads to suppression of the CDW transition. At much lower temperatures (T = 10–30 K) magnetic order appears for the compounds with magnetic Eu atoms. Here\, we present the crystal structures of the incommensurate CDWs of EuAl 4 \, EuAl 2 Ga2 and SrAl 4 . In particular\, the symmetry of the CDWs is analyzed in view of x-ray diffraction data (present data [2–5])\, and results of transmission electron microscopy (TEM)\, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and inelastic x ray scattering (IXS) from the literature [6–8].\nReferences : \n[1] M.

SUMMARY:Simon PONTON (chargé de recherche CNRS - SIMaP)
DESCRIPTION:Development of the combinatorial approach for the CVD thin film deposition process : Multiphysics coupling and machine learning\nRésumé : \nThe combinatorial approach applied to chemical vapor deposition processes integrating high-throughput experiments\, computational simulations\, and machine learning seems to emerge as a transformative paradigm to accelerate the discovery of novel materials. Through systematic gradient explorations\, large-scale datasets can be generated to deepen our understanding of process-structure-property relationships. Machine learning models\, trained on experimental and simulated data enable rapid prediction and identification of high-potential solutions\, thereby guiding future experiments and simulations. The synergy not only reduces the time or cost associated with material discovery but also unlocks access to previously unexplored regions of the materials space. \nShort Bio/CVMy academic journey began in Grenoble\, where I studied chemistry before developing a keen interest in materials sciences\, particularly nanostructures and their processing. Driven by a desire to unravel the underlying mechanisms\, I started my PhD in Toulouse\, between the CIRIMAT and LGC. There\, I expanded my expertise in chemical engineering and Multiphysics simulation. After nearly two years of postdoctoral research\, I sought to broaden my research perspective and joined Polytechnique Montréal in the chemical engineering section for two postdoctoral positions that led to an associate professor role. However\, my longing for French cheese proved irresistible\, I successfully secured a position at CNRS and joined SIMaP in February 2026. \nContact : deborah.verger@grenoble-inp.fr

SUMMARY:Karine PHILIPPOT (Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination du CNRS (LCC-CNRS)\, Toulouse\, France)
DESCRIPTION:Design of nanocatalysts following molecular chemistry principles\nRésumé : \nDue to their singular properties and potential applications in various fields\, considerable effort is being devoted to the design of metal-based nanomaterials. The « Metal Nanoparticle Engineering » team at LCC-CNRS (Toulouse\, France) has developed an effective toolkit for the synthesis of controlled metal nanoparticles using concepts from molecular chemistry. This approach is based on the hydrogenation of organometallic or metallo-organic complexes under mild conditions (ambient temperature; 3 bar H2) in the presence of ligands as stabilising agents. (1) This approach makes it possible to obtain small nanoparticles (<10 nm) with controlled composition\, either monometallic or bimetallic (alloy\, core-shell\, surface-decorated). These nanoparticles can be deposited on a support by simple impregnation or by direct synthesis in the presence of the chosen support (polymers\, ionic liquids\, silica\, alumina\, carbonaceous materials\, etc.). These metal nanoparticle systems are suitable models for fundamental research. They find applications in various fields such as catalysis. (2\,3) Non exhaustive examples concern biomass valorization (4)\, hydrogenation catalysis (4-6) including reduction of CO2\, (7) or electrocatalytic (8-11) or photocatalytic (12-13) water splitting process. \nReferences : \n1 C.
