ARCANE Bio-driven chemistry
@CBH Graduate School

Arcane’s core theme is chemical design, synthesis and application of novel molecular bioinspired or biosourced architectures as part of translational research into 3 topics related to sustaining and advancing human society: Energy supply, the Environment, and Health.

Since December 2018, Arcane has integrated the project of CBH Graduate School. The CBH Graduate School contributes to the progress of the Arcane researches by reinforcing the structuring of the community through calls for projects for doctoral research grants proposing collaborative projects between laboratories on the Grenoble site and promoting synergy between training and research.

The research program of the Bio-Targeted axis includes development of new tools for therapeutic, diagnostic and personalized medicine based on organic chemistry and synthetic biology.

The Bio-Inspired axis builds on the achievements from the initial period to foster bioinspiration as a unique tool for innovation in the search for solutions for the energy transition.

The Emergence core combines physico-chemical characterization and simulation with other methods in synthesis, surface chemistry and hybridization.

Arcane stems from a fruitful partnership between these seven labs.
