A study by a team from the Structural Biology of the Cell Laboratory (BIOC*), with the participation of the Molecular Chemistry Laboratory (LCM*), published in Nature communications, reveals the mechanisms that initiate translation of the genetic code into proteins in an archaea. This result supports the hypothesis that eukaryotes emerged from the archaeal domain during evolution.
École Polytechnique is strengthening its ties with two first-class academic and scientific institutions in India. During her visit to India in early October 2024, École Polytechnique’s President, Laura Chaubard, signed two student exchange agreements - the first with the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) and the second with the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi).
Since October 2022, École Polytechnique has been working with École Penninghen to develop a demonstrator for the XSeaO2 program, financed by the Ifker fund, and aimed at recovering CO2 dissolved in seawater to produce synthetic fuel. The Nautilus project, designed by students at École Penninghen, was chosen as the basis for the sensor design.
Catalysis plays a very important role in chemistry as it promotes and accelerates reactions. In particular, organometallic catalysis, which uses metal...
