A novel medical device for the treatment of Endometriosis
Endometriosis is one of the most prevalent, impactful and undertreated disorders to affect European women. The condition is defined as an estrogen-dependent disorder, where endomet...
Automated Verification of Textual Claims
Verification of textual claims is the task of assessing the truthfulness of a statement in natural language. It is commonly conducted manually by journalists on claims made by publ...
Riding a ‘Trojan horse’ against cancer
New therapeutic approaches have led to significant improvements in cancer treatment, but none have been able to overcome the limited efficacy of solid tumor treatment due to poor t...
Coding for Interactive Communication and the Power of Adaptivity
Error correcting codes allow for reliable transmission of data over unreliable channels. The 70 years of development that went into the study of error correction, following Shannon...
New Parties on the News: How New(s) Media and New Parties Shape Attention and Electoral Support for Political Ideas
For democracy, a necessary condition is openness to new political ideas. New ideas are often advanced by new political parties. New parties must rely on media to communicate with t...
Light-operated logic circuits from photonic soft-matter
I propose a revolutionary photonic technology based on self-assembled soft matter that is likely to evolve into currently unforeseen, futuristic technologies. The liquid nature and...
Whole genome duplication – the gateway to adaptation?
Whole genome duplication (WGD, polyploidization) is arguably the most massive genome-wide mutation whose ubiquity across eukaryotes suggests an adaptive benefit, though no mechanis...
A Better Life for the Children of Exile: Intergenerational Adaptation of the Descendants of Refugees
More than 2.5 million refugees have been granted residence in Europe over the last ten years and their long-run adaptation is a fundamental societal challenge. Adaptation can only...
Revealing the Synapse Architecture and Plasticity by Structural Interactomics
Brain function crucially depends on chemical neurotransmission at synapses, while, conversely, synaptic dysfunction underlies neurological and psychiatric disorders. Synapses are c...
Did elite human capital trigger the rise of the West? Insights from a new database of European scholars
My aim is to determine the role of elite knowledge and upper-tail human capital (UTHC) in triggering the rise of the West. I propose to build a database of a large sample of academ...
Poetry in the Digital Age
Contemporary performative, musical and audiovisual poetry is opening up access to a genre that has frequently been considered abstract and elitist. Sophisticated book poetry is bei...
Optoelectronic medicine - nerve cell regulation with light
Bioelectronic medicine today is growing in leaps and bounds, with ambitious new technologies entering the clinic and already changing the lives of more than a million patients worl...
Deep multi-scale modelling of electrified metal oxide nanostructures
One promising solution toward a sustainable society and a green economy is to use metal oxide-based materials. Metal oxides are a class of inorganic materials that have various ene...
Synaptic Switching with Halide Perovskites
Metal halide perovskites are attracting much attention because they are excellent semiconductors for use in optoelectronic devices such as solar cells, LEDs, and detectors. Next to...
NanOthermomteRs for THeranostics
The goal of this project is to develop novel types of multifunctional nanoparticles combining temperature diagnostics and therapy. More specifically we aim at combining thermometry...
OpenAIRE-Nexus Scholarly Communication Services for EOSC users
OpenAIRE-Nexus brings in Europe, EOSC and the world a set of services to implement and accelerate Open Science. To embed in researchers workflows, making it easier for them to acc...
Safe and sUstainable by desigN Strategies for HIgh performance multi-component NanomatErials
The main goal of SUNSHINE is to develop and implement S&SbD strategies for products enabled by multi-component (advanced) nanomaterials (MCNM), including high aspect-ratio nanomate...
Services based on Ecosystem data AssiMiLation: Essential Science and Solutions
The ocean provides us with vital climate and food services by absorbing 30% of anthropogenic carbon emissions and supplying 17% of animal proteins to the world’s population. Howeve...
From Social Interaction to Abstract Concepts and Words: Towards Human-centered Technology Development
This project is aimed at strengthening the interdisciplinary field of research on the emergence, understanding and use of abstract concepts and words in human interaction, and its...
Reasoning about processes: a logico-philosophical investigation
The goal of this project is to develop a formal framework for reasoning about processes, as a contribution to modal-temporal logic, process ontology, formal semantics, and AI. The...
