Cellular and molecular mechanisms of pancreatic beta-cell adaptation to pregnancy in large mammals.
Pregnancy is characterized by the development of maternal insulin resistance and increased hepatic glucose production to provide sufficient glucose to be used as nutrient by the de...
Large-Area Perovskite Solar Module Manufacturing with High Efficiency, Long-Term Stability and Low Environmental Impact
In recent years, organometal halide perovskite-based photovoltaics (PV) have attracted great interest for their high power conversion efficiency at low manufacturing cost.Presently...
Formation and Evolution of the Earth with Volatile Elements
The first 150 million years of the Earths history have led to the formation of the metallic core and the solidification of the magma ocean.During this period the chemical compositi...
Saving the Kashmirian Sanskrit Heritage
The importance of Kashmirian Sanskrit Literature was realised by scholars only in the late 19thcentury, when the literary canon and historiography of Sanskrit Literature in the Ind...
Spatio-Seasonal Eco-Evolutionary Dynamics
My overarching ambition in EcoEvoMove is to provide new theoretical and empirical understanding of how ecological and evolutionary dynamics can interact to ‘rescue’ wild population...
Bioorthogonal Iontronic Chemistry: Spatiotemporal Drug Release with Electronic Precision
I envision a new drug delivery system capable spatiotemporal release with electronic precision.This technology is based on; Biontronic Chemistry (BC) which combines Bioorthogonal R...
Proving causality of liquid-liquid phase separation for the acquisition of nuclear-like functions by Giant Viruses Viral Factories
Giant Viruses (GVs) encode thousands of ORFan genes but their study has been nearly impossible due to the lack of genetic tools for reverse genetics. The aims of ViDaMa and the too...
Understanding and Engineering Resistive Switching towards Robust Neuromorphic Systems
Resistive switching refers to the controlled change in resistance of an electronic material, e.g. metal oxide, via the creation and modulation of nanoscale filaments.Although its p...
Novel histocompatibility loci in man
Allogeneic tissue graft (hematopoietic cell transplantation; HCT) and solid organ transplantation (SOT) (Kidney, Heart, Lung,..) save tens of thousands of lives annually.Yet their...
Governing Quakerty in a Post-Disaster Türkiye
This academic research, entitled 'Governing Quakerty', focuses on the intersection of 'quake' and 'property', and sheds light on property governance i...
Social justice or cancel culture? Gender-just language and academic freedom in Germany
The research project focuses on one specific field of the current culture wars in Europe: what is framed as social justice by one side and cancel culture or woke by the other.The p...
A Blueprint for Photonic Quantum Computer
Recent technological advances allow to build revolutionary devices for information processing by making use of the laws of quantum mechanics.Most strikingly, quantum communication...
Network Information Theory for NonLinear optical channels
Optical fiber systems carry nearly all of the global Internet traffic and are critical infrastructure for modernsociety. Long-haul optical networks are often based on the notion of...
Traumatized Subjects: Mental Health, Violence, and the Fabric of Europe Between the Wars (1918-39)
TRAUMA examines the transnational and trans-medial circulation of key discourses regarding mental health and violence that emerged in interwar Europe (191839).I argue that, althoug...

FATty liver disease and Gutmicrobial Alcohol Production (FATGAP)
Obesity and subsequent non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NAFLD-NASH) are important determinants of morbidity and mortality being imbalanced between ethnicities living in Europe.Howe...
Bayesian Gaussian Processes. Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Nonlinear Social Science
Nonlinearity is ubiquitous in the social sciences.In cross-sectional research, nonlinearity naturally follows from the fact that variables often depend on human perception.The tend...
Black Hole Stability
The discovery of black holes, first as explicit solutions of Einstein equations of general relativity, and later as possible explanations of astrophysical phenomena, has revolution...
