Mechanisms underlying the protective effect of the biocontrol agent Bacillus subtilis 30B-B6 in Solanaceae by Gil COLAU31 MarAlthough the use of bacteria belonging to the genus Bacillus is a promising sustainable alternative in crop protection. Many questions remain on their modes of action in the biocontrol of plant pathogens. This work aims to evaluate and characterize the modes of action of the biocontrol agent B. subtilis 30B-B6 against early and late blight diseases on Solanaceae.En savoir plusMechanisms underlying the protective effect of the biocontrol agent Bacillus subtilis 30B-B6 in Solanaceae by Gil COLAU31 MarAlthough the use of bacteria belonging to the genus Bacillus is a promising sustainable alternative in crop protection.

Cuvette Central Expedition – challenges associated with field work in the DR Congo by Simon Baumgartner (UCL), Dr Travis Drake (ETH) and Prof Matti Barthel (ETH)08 MarThe talk will provide a virtual journey to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The DRC is famous for its populations of mountain gorillas and bonobos but also well known for regular Ebola outbreaks and frequent eruptions of violence by militia groups.En savoir plusCuvette Central Expedition – challenges associated with field work in the DR Congo by Simon Baumgartner (UCL), Dr Travis Drake (ETH) and Prof Matti Barthel (ETH)08 MarThe talk will provide a virtual journey to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Rare event simulation techniques and extreme heatwaves in general circulation models: applications and perspectives for predictability studies by Francesco Ragone01 MarStudying rare extreme events in the climate system is extremely challenging, since it is often impossible to have observational data or to run numerical simulations long enough to sample a sufficient number of events to have a reliable statistics.En savoir plusRare event simulation techniques and extreme heatwaves in general circulation models: applications and perspectives for predictability studies by Francesco Ragone01 MarStudying rare extreme events in the climate system is extremely challenging, since it is often impossible to have observational data or to run numerical simulations long enough to sample a sufficient number of events to have a reliable statistics.

Tick sampling, lab experiment at Sciensano, multi-level modeling, species diversity by Raphael Rousseau22 FebTicks constitute a threat for human and animal health because they can transmit diseases, such as Lyme disease. But where to find them ? To collect them ? Which factors influence elements of disease transmission ?En savoir plusTick sampling, lab experiment at Sciensano, multi-level modeling, species diversity by Raphael Rousseau22 FebTicks constitute a threat for human and animal health because they can transmit diseases, such as Lyme disease.
