France's national centre for scientific research, a state body operating laboratories across the sciences.
Scientists at OIST, CNRS and Indiana University School of Medicine linked 585 liver genes in adult blue damselfish to urbanisation across 18 Okinawan sites. Urban fish looked well fed by their gene activity yet showed stronger immune and inflammatory signals.

Solar Orbiter flew through a large magnetic switchback and used the particles inside it to trace the kink to a source on the Sun's surface. The result comes from a single crossing, so it limits how switchbacks can begin but cannot yet say how most of them do.

Physicists at Saint Louis University and CNRS found that focusing gain through opaque layers swings several times wider than correlation-free theory predicts. The average still matched theory, so the excess spread is the part that reports on the medium.

Raffles' pitcher plant traps insects in fluid whose elastic force measured 10,000 times its viscosity under simulated kicks. Field work in Borneo adds that the trap catches best at middling fluid levels and that the plant restores them within days.

A 50-person Paris company with more than 30 clients has convinced Bpifrance's defence fund and Xavier Niel that the way to compete with American compute is to change the mathematics rather than match the budget.

I-care acquired the assets of Grenoble's Amiral Technologies on Sept. 17. DiagFit learns an asset's normal behavior from operating data and flags departures from it, and it can run inside a customer's own network.

Yuval Paz, Jay Fineberg and colleagues watched two-dimensional broken patches creep for at least three quarters of a fracture event, a slow stage classical fracture mechanics was never built to describe.

INRAE and CNRS teams rebuilt ten ancestral genomes older than 200 million years, then read 10,000 years of selection across 1,420 wheat and barley varieties to arrive at about a hundred candidate variants.

Thomas Skordas told a European Parliament session that the act is not about budget, then said Europe expects a little consolidation, which leaves founders coordination on offer and payroll exactly where it was.
