A Multiscale Analysis of Bacterial Predation
Predation arguably impacts the evolution and shape of ecological systems. This process occurs at all scales from mammals to viruses. Predatory bacteria remain poorly studied despit...
Using periodic orbits to quantitatively describe and control 3D fluid turbulence.
Fluid turbulence is of key importance in engineering: it controls the drag on aircraft, is a major contributor to unwanted energy dissipation in pipelines, yet mixing of chemicals...
Detection of Early seismic signal using ARtificiaL Intelligence
Earthquakes caused nearly one million fatalities in the last two decades. The hazardous nature of earthquakes is largely due to their unpredictability. The question of whether this...
Tackling Multi-Host Pathogenicity of Xylella by Assisted Immunity
This project addresses a complex problem in agriculture and will identify the process of multi-host pathogenicity.Emerging and re-emerging disease epidemics represent ongoing chall...
ZEolite synthesis in Unusual Reactors for Enhanced CAtalysts
Approximately 9 out of 10 chemical processes use a solid catalyst, as they increase the efficiency of chemical reactions while being recyclable. Zeolites are one of the most iconic...
SIMULACRON: From Camera Observations to Physical Simulations of the 3D World
Despite their amazing success, we believe that computer vision algorithms have only scratched the surface in terms of understanding our world from images. While most research on 3D...
Scattering Amplitudes for Gravitational Wave Theory
Four years ago, the LIGO/Virgo observation of a black-hole binary mergerheralded the dawn of gravitational-wave astronomy. The promise of futureobservations calls for an invigorat...
Bioinspired Composites Strategies for Saving Energy
Saving energy together with energy harvesting is demanded by increasing power consumption. The energy industry requires new materials not only for construction but also in cabling...
Illuminating the role of transcription factor dynamics in development
Understanding how genomic regulatory elements encode when and where genes are expressed in development remains one of the most important open questions in biology. Despite intense...
Injectable wireless microsensors based on the eAXON technology
Within the eAXON project, which is funded by an ERC CoG, we are developing a technology for neuroprosthetics which consists of wireless microstimulators whose operation is based on...
Understanding collective mechanisms of cell fate regulation using single-cell genomics
Biological systems rely on an influx of energy to build and maintain complex spatio-temporal structures. A striking example of this is the self-organisation of cells into tissues,...
Shaped Hybrid Forward Error Correction
Next-generation optical and wireless communications require high-performance, high-speed, and low-power consumption error decoding structures. These requirements cannot be satisfie...
What drives human behavior regarding global coastal migration and adaptation in response to sea level rise and extreme flood events?
Future sea level rise (SLR), extreme flood events, and urbanization pressure will increase coastal flood risk, and in the absence of costly flood protection measures in numerous re...
An exosome-based therapeutic approach against chronic inflammation
DNA damage triggers the activation of innate immune signaling leading to chronic inflammation and the premature onset of e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, metabolic diseases and...
Autonomously adapting and communicating modular textiles
This project contributes to a paradigm shift for smart soft materials into user-customizable textiles that autonomously interact with their environment and communicate through chan...
Information, Markets, and the Macroeconomy
Financial markets play an essential role in allocating an economys resources to their most productive use, fostering investment, employment, innovation, and growth. While there is...
Sonic Street Technologies (SST): their diaspora and what they tell us about technology and scientific knowledge
This project claims that ‘sonic street technologies’ (SST) provide a new, productive and urgently required understanding of the social, cultural and political nature of technology....
Nuclear rEaCTions At storage Rings
Obtaining reliable cross sections for neutron-induced reactions on unstable nuclei is a highly important task and a major challenge. These data are essential for nuclear astrophysi...
Foundations of Motivic Real K-Theory
Quadratic forms are ubiquitous throughout mathematics, playing a fundamental role in areas from arithmetic through algebra and geometry. In surgery theory, quadratic forms feature...
Scalable Co-optimization of Collective Robotic Mobility and the Artificial Environment
The behavior of intelligent systems, both living and artificial, is influenced through the structure of their surrounding environment. In nature, environmental constraints dictate...
