Actually Existing Development: Twentieth Century International Development and the Global South
International developmentthe cross-border transfer of funds and expertise for developmental purposesformed a core plank of the twentieth century international system. But we still...
Educational Inequalities and Generative AI: A Focus on Language Diversity
ChatEQUITY investigates the impact of generative AI (GenAI) on educational inequalities amid growing societal linguistic diversity. The central hypothesis is that although multilin...
Petrification of ius commune through printed paratexts
Between the 1460s and 1620s, printed editions of canon and civil law texts witnessed a constant development of marginal paratexts, such as glosses, summaries, cases or commentaries...
Refugees’ Political Participation and State-(Re)Making in Displacement
In todays world, the majority of refugees originate from states plagued by civil war and extreme violence, where the legitimacy of the state as guarantor of protection is unsettled...
Metabolic adaptation in injuries of the peripheral nervous system
The peripheral nervous system constitutes a prime example of a tissue with a strong regenerative potential. Full recovery upon nerve trauma, however, is rare and usually fails in p...
Engineering wide band-gap LOW-DImensional systems for advanced perovskite optoelectronics
Engineering new solutions for powering smart portable devices is key to sustain billion-scale connected objects and to provide a greener alternative to batteries. Indoor Photovolta...
Molecular interconnections between transcription, translation and DNA repair in bacteria
This proposal brings together the fields of bacterial transcription, translation and DNA repair with state-of-the art single-molecule biophysics in vitro and in vivo, biochemistry...
Deep-learning for structure-based discovery of adaptive immune receptors
B- and T- cell adaptive immune receptor (AIR) repertoires are highly diverse, enabling response to a wide range of pathogens. While sequencing of an individual's immune repertoires...
Developmental Crosstalks between Microglia, Blood-Brain Barrier and Maternal Microbiota
Brain functioning can be influenced by body ecosystem signals conveyed through the vasculature and regulated by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), a selective and modulable barrier tha...
Critical Caste Geographies: Mapping the intersections of law, labour, and mobility
The South Asian diaspora in the UK and USA is estimated to be 10 million strong. The dominant images that represent this diverse community are those of high-skilled professionals i...
Global Hydroconnectivities beyond Oceans, Seas and Rivers
HydroConnect focuses on the connectivities afforded by hidden, underground fresh water that surfaces along the coastlines of islands lacking accessible, perennial fresh water. It e...
Interstellar Chiral Evolution‒Exploring Enantiomeric Excesses in Evolving Environments
The origin of life is a profound and experimentally challenging question, with an inherent bias for handed molecules at a chemical level. Homochirality, specifically the preference...
Metal-Induced Energy Transfer based Electrometry and Nanometry: Dissecting Electrostatic Phenomena in Biological Processes
Almost all biological processes, involving molecular trafficking, signal-transduction, cell-to-cell interactions, hinge on precisely orchestrated electrostatic interactions, arisin...
Maintenance of platelet homeostasis by tyrosine phosphatases and vascular heparan sulfates
Platelets are highly reactive fragments of megakaryocytes (MKs) that have been implicated in all major pathophysiological processes, but the molecular mechanisms controlling the nu...
Controllable Magnetic Cores for Transformers and Electrical Machines
Ferromagnetic cores are used in transformers and electrical machines to allow producing a large magnetic flux with a small electric current. These cores have been traditionally des...
Food identities: biomolecular archaeology reveals multiple and dynamic social identities
The major challenge of archaeological identity studies stems from the dynamic, multidimensional, performative and contextual nature of identities, which are hard to grasp through t...
Towards globally accessible language technology and its alignment to cultural contexts
My research project focuses on natural language processing (NLP), an area of artificial intelligence concerned with automatic interpretation and generation of human language. NLP i...
CLIMate policy integration – a comPLEXITY trap?
Public policy research finds integrating climate change into other policy sectors a key to achieving climate goals. The EU has set climate as a horizontal priority and adopted a mu...
Entanglement Theory: a Quantum Odyssey, from the Generalised Quantum Stein's Lemma to Quantum Gravity
Quantum entanglement fuels the most important quantum information processing protocols and is central to modern physics. However, the most profound questions concerning its operati...
Extraction, Modelling and Analysis of the Brain Vessel Tree
The brain vessel tree is essential to brain function. However, we still have limited knowledge about this structure compared to other organs that have been extensively studied. Whi...
