Three projects involving CEISAM members have been selected under the National Research Agency’s (ANR) 2026 Generic Call for Proposals. The successful projects are: – MAGNETIMA, a collaborative research project (PRC) led by Lénaïc Lartigue; – MatersMOST, a collaborative research project (PRC), with Adèle Laurent as a partner; – REDKNOTS, a collaborative research project (PRC), with...
Researchers from CEISAM (CNRS/Nantes Université) and the Interdisciplinary Center for Nanoscience of Marseille (CINaM, CNRS/Aix-Marseille Université) have developed a new family of cross-shaped organic dyes whose optical properties can be tuned by modifying their molecular architecture. These original molecules consist of an aromatic core bearing electron-donating and electron-accepting groups along two perpendicular directions. This cross-shaped...
Audits for the OpenLab certification are getting underway at CEISAM. On Tuesday, July 21, 2026, we welcomed a group of four auditors (from Kaléinno and the Pays de la Loire region) for the Regional isotope platform from Pays de la Loire (PLI), whose Nantes site was selected for the audit.
The AMaCC platform was invited to present its work at the 1st National MassChem Network Meeting, held on 1–2 June 2026 in Nancy. The event brought together mass spectrometry facilities and researchers from across France working in the field of chemistry. The presentation, entitled “When the molecular ion is missing: Challenges in the interpretation of...
Four scientists from CEISAM visited children in the University hospital of Nantes (CHU) as part of an initiative organized jointly by the Mission Culture Scientifique et Technique of Nantes University and the ‘School in Hospital’ program (under the authority of Nantes’s rectorat) on the 1st and 5th of June. Ewen Bodio and Mathieu Scalabrini ran...
Thursday June 11, the NMR platform of CEISAM laboratory organized its annual scientific day, with an exceptional format to celebrate the finalization of the CPER UltraOmics project. The program included a presentation of new equipment, visits of the facility, an invited lecture by Lindsay Peyriga (from the MetaboHub – MetaToul platform), and oral communications from...
As part of the scientific update day in physics and chemistry for secondary school teachers, organized on June 10 at the Faculty of Science of Nantes Université, around twenty teachers were welcomed to the CEISAM laboratory. The theme of this year’s edition was artificial intelligence. Several researchers and faculty members from the laboratory presented how...
Estelle LEBEGUE, an associate professor in the IMF team, will defend her HDR thesis titled “Electrochemistry of Single Impacts for the Analysis of Bacteria and Liposomes” on Friday, July 17, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. in the Marie Curie Room at the CEISAM Laboratory. Title Single-impact electrochemistry for analyzing bacteria and liposomes Keywords Single-impact, Chronoamperometry, Ultramicroelectrode,...
Dr. Lawrence Harris (Institute: Ferrier Research Institute (Victoria University of Wellington)) will give a lecture titled “The Development of New Classes of Antiviral Nucleoside” on Monday, June 8, at 10:30 a.m. in the Marie Curie Room. Summary Broad-spectrum antiviral nucleosides are an important class of molecules with proven potential to treat viral diseases. Both RNA...
The honey harvest from the CEISAM laboratory hives has just been completed. Installed on the ISOMER laboratory site, these hives are maintained throughout the year thanks to the joint involvement of members from both laboratories, who closely monitor the bees and take part in the honey harvest. This spring’s harvest was exceptional: nearly 100 kg...
