Founding
- ANR PTflax : the aim of this project was the developpement of a EMS mutant library and its phenotypique and genetic characterisation,
- PIA-PSPC SINFONI : The objective of this project is the development and structuring of the plant fibers inducstrial sector for use in composite materials. In this project our laboratory was interested in the study of the microbiological and enzymatic phenomena involved in the retting of flax fiber,
- CPER 2014-2020 : Alibiotech : This project is founded by the french "Hauts de France" region to promote Agri-Food and Biotechnology research program,
- 80Prime 2020-2021 : Valtronic : This project is founded by the french agency "CNRS". Valtronic concerns the development of a biometric sensor to monitor the retting of flax on fields. This project is carried out in collaboration with the IEMN (Institute of Microelectronics and Nanotechnology),
- PEARL 2021-2024 : Flaxtronic : This project is founded by the I-Site ULNE. Flaxtronic concerns the development of a biometric sensor to monitor the retting of flax on fields. This project is carried out in collaboration with the IEMN (Institute of Microelectronics and Nanotechnology),
