    3D printing partnership with OCA and CNRS
    Université Côte d'Azur, via its IMREDD Institute for Innovation and Partnerships, the 'Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur' and the CNRS are creating a center of expertise in additive manufacturing (3D printing). At the "Smart City Innovation Centre", they are pooling their material and human resources to meet more diverse and numerous demands, and to support projects aimed at accelerating the region's move towards the industry of the future.

    Active jumping genes: the first epigenetic map established
    In a paper published in the journal Cell Genomics in February 2024, Gaël Cristofari's team at IRCAN has established the most detailed epigenetic (DNA methylation) map yet obtained for active human jumping genes, with numerous discoveries about their regulation. Jumping genes make up the majority of what is often referred to as the "dark matter" of our genome, as they are not easily accessible by conventional genetic analysis methods.
