Detoxifying alcohol in the wild- Investigating convergent evolution among butterflies feeding on fermenting fruits
Key innovations allow organisms to exploit novel resources fuelling rapid diversification. Fermenting fruits have higher nutritional value, for example, than nectar, and their cons...
HISTORICISING THE PRIVATISATION OF HEALING KNOWLEDGE
PrivHealth aims to establish the first history of the process of privatisation of healing knowledge. Combining methods from history of knowledge and tools from computational histor...
Examining effects of daytime naps on memory consolidation and emotional reactivity in a well-powered, pre-registered multi-lab collaboration
This proposal will examine if a daytime nap improves memory consolidation, with the largest and most diverse sample size of any study ever conducted on this topic. We will achieve...
Spatiotemporal control of singlet oxygen release from supramolecular hydrogels to improve cancer therapy
This research aims to develop novel supramolecular hydrogels and study their application as singlet oxygen (1O2) carriers. In medicine, 1O2 generated in-vivo through photochemistry...
Multi4 - the first surgical instrument for bladder cancer treatment through a 20-minute outpatient procedure
Bladder Cancer (BC) is the most overlooked cancer type in terms of the development of new surgical tools aimed at achieving efficient cancer treatment. The instruments used in the...
Nontarget analysis of Arctic sediments: An empirical indicator of persistent chemicals overlooked by regulation
The increasing volume and type of chemicals produced worldwide every year have the potential to cause severe ecosystem and human health problems. However, due to largely insufficie...
Dynamic Modeling of Non-Pharmacological Interventions for Type 2 Diabetes
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is projected to increase by 100 million within years. However, while lifestyle changes are recommended by the WHO to counter & mitigate diab...
Strengthening the Critical Raw Material Independence of the EU through thermochronology
The rapidly increasing green technology transition efforts of the European Union to combat climate change resulted in an unprecedented demand for critical raw materials like rare e...
Network-based prediction of spreading of tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease: implications for clinical trials
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has far-reaching societal and economic consequences, emphasizing the urgent need for effective treatment solutions. However, to date, over 99% of AD clinic...
Extreme Ultraviolet Ptychographic Microscopy
This project “Extreme ultraviolet ptychographic microscopy” (XUVPM) aims at improving the robustness and resolution of multispectral extreme ultraviolet (XUV) ptychography by reali...
Long-range and high-data-rate wireless communication using chirp spread spectrum modulated spintronic oscillators.
Wireless communication is an indispensable facet of modern society, offering remarkable performance and societal benefits. It promotes vast network coverage, scalability, and the a...
Unravelling the Nitrogen Fixation-Primary Production Feedback Loop: Implications for Carbon Cycling and Oceanic Health
The project ‘NIPROFEED’ delves into the vital interplay between primary producers, nitrogen fixation, and particle dynamics in aquatic ecosystems. Primary producers play a crucial...
Leveraging artificial Intelligence to Balance tRade-offs in the digital economy
LIBRA (Leveraging artificial Intelligence to Balance tRade-offs in the digital economy) will assess and compute positive and negative impacts on AI systems on society and the envir...
Understanding the ion distribution in LECs
Sustainable, recyclable, and low-cost light-emitting technologies are projected to revolutionize the lighting market by introducing new applications in disease treatment, packaging...
Regulation of hormone-sensitive lipase in neurons
Several lipids and lipid-derived molecules play crucial roles in regulating brain function, affecting synaptic activity and plasticity, cerebral blood flow regulation, and neuroinf...
Understanding the drying behavior of polymer-coated particle dispersions using optical tweezers
After spilling coffee, a tell-tale circular stain is left by the drying droplet. This universal phenomenon, known as the coffee ring effect, is observed independent of the disperse...
Uncovering the Regulators of Cellular Plasticity by Direct Reprogramming
Cellular reprogramming has revolutionized stem cell biology by allowing the generation of stem cells, progenitors, or somatic cell identities with small combinations of transcripti...
Modelling plating morphology in lithium-ion batteries for enhanced safety
EU will aim to have at least 30 million zero-emission vehicles by 2030, primarily powered by the current energy storage technology of choice - lithium-ion batteries. Despite remark...
Photonic molecule microcombs
Frequency combs are remarkable photonic devices for precision frequency synthesis and metrology. The core technology behind conventional frequency combs is a mode-locked laser. Tod...
