Recurrent miscarriage as a complex phenotype: Harnessing large-scale clinical data to uncover underlying biological pathways
Recurrent miscarriage (RM) affects 1% of couples trying to conceive and has a wide range of negative physical and mental impacts yet still has few evidence-based, preventative trea...
SESAM2030 - science, citizens, schools and a hungry planet
The climate crisis is obvious, the nature needs protection, biodiversity is under threat and the environment needs to be taken care of. But at the same the growing planetary popula...
Adaptive potential for changes in environmental conditions in exploited fish species.
Global change is threatening life at the seas by changing the physical, chemical, and biological conditions of the environment. Thus, marine species will need to adapt to the new e...
Understanding resilience of seed dispersal in insular systems to climate change
Global biodiversity loss is disproportionately rapid on islands, which despite being hotspots of biodiversity, comprise ~ 80% of world’s species extinctions. The vulnerability of i...
Tunning the force for remote magnetomechanical gating of Piezo1 channels
During the last decade, the possibility to remotely control intracellular pathways using physical tools has opened the way to exciting applications, both in basic research and clin...
Gravity perception: molecular, cellular and adaptive behavior
Although gravity sensation is not easy to sense, it is extrapolated by combining multisensory information. Due to this integrative nature of gravity perception, the knowledge regar...
A Novel Framework for Contactless diagnosis and forecasting of Cardiovascular Diseases
In ancient times, doctors have followed unorganized practices to diagnose cardiac arrest conditions of healthcare patients. The followed medical procedures were not very organized...
Measuring and Understanding Disparities in Family Formation in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
The first union formation and the birth of the first child are among the most critical events shaping men’s and women’s life-course trajectories. Sustainable Development Goals (SDG...
Lymphoid Organoids to Study Immune Synapse in Lymphoma Therapies
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in Europe and worldwide with more than 463/100 000/year. Activated B cell (ABC)-DLBCL r...
sPatially and environmentAlly aCtuable nancoMposite hydrogels towArds Nervous system repair
This proposal aims to capitalize on my unique multi-disciplinary expertise in nanotechnology, tissue engineering, polymer/inorganic hybrids, and microsurgical techniques, while acq...
Electrothermal Spatial Light modulator for neuronal tissue imaging in depth
In the current era of images, spatial light modulators (SLM) are essential building blocks to improve the performance of new photonic devices, all the way from the consumer market,...
Liposomes as nanoreactors for the bottom-up assembly of supramolecular structures in confined space
Nanoreactors are attractive systems for emerging technologies because they allow the manipulation of matter on a molecular scale to fabricate macroscale products. Consequently, nan...
Certainty in an Uncertain World: A Philosophy of Opinion
This research proposes to examine what comprises 'opinion' in today's world of instantaneous communication. How, might it be said, does thought lapse into opinion? It is an urgent...
Geometry, Dynamics and Singularities in Fluid Flows
The GDSFLOWS project aims to re-shape the mathematics we use to understand fluid flows. More precisely, the goal is to develop completely new tools, at the crossroads of differenti...
Development and exploitation of new molecular tools to understand rhamnogalacturonan-II metabolism in plants
Most plants cells have a wall protecting them from environmental stress and diseases caused by pathogens. The cell wall is made up of a network of complex carbohydrates including r...
Viral hijacking of the Hippo pathway - HCMV-encoded viral GPCRs US28 and UL78 differentially modulate the Hippo pathway in cancer.
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a herpesvirus that infects large parts of the population, with a prevalence of 80-100% in Europe. In healthy individuals, HCMV infection usually...
Self-Referenced XUV Transient Reflectivity Spectroscopy: Attosecond Electron Dynamics of 2D Layered Materials
The research and development of novel layered and 2D materials is at the center of a focused interest in the material sciences. The large photon coupling of their excitonic excitat...
Understanding aneuploidy tolerance in cancer by studying early embryogenesis
Can we study complex cancer biology by using a more predictable and structured model of embryogenesis? Many of the hallmarks of cancer biology are shared with the biology of embryo...
Fabrication of Wide Bandgap Chalcopyrite Photovoltaics at Low Temperatures for Prospective Tandem Solar Cells
Adapting photovoltaics as a reliable renewable energy source, advanced technological solutions must be brought at the cell level. The power conversion efficiency targets must be hi...
Relationships of receptive grammar acquisition with musical rhythm processing and executive functions
Language is one of the hallmarks of what it means to be human and grammar is a core linguistic ability that makes us able to understand (receptive grammar) and express (expressive...
