Piezoceutical biomaterial scaffolds for immunomodulatory-based myocardial repair
Cardiac injury in the form of a myocardial infarction leads to cardiac muscle death and replacement scar tissue that cannot compensate lost heart tissue.This disease does not impro...
Design of unprecedented electrophilic SF5 reagents: applications in the synthesis of heteroatom-SF5/carbon-SF5 bonds and late-stage functionalization
The Give-Me-Five project will provide the next generation of fluorinated molecules that found plethora of applications in life science. Currently up to 50% of agrochemicals as well...
Isolating Many-Particle Correlations in Time and Space
Electronic excitations are crucial in many fields of science and engineering.Time-resolved spectroscopy is widely used to detect dynamics of excited particles (electrons) and quasi...
Mechanisms of Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus replication and maintenance during latency
Oncogenic viruses are the third most common cause of cancer in humans.Kaposis sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) is an oncogenic virus that establishes life-long latent infection and can d...
Tailoring Organic-Inorganic Layered Structures to Build Functional Graded 2D Nanomaterials for Advanced Nanointerfaces
Advanced functional devices require integration of distinct materials (polymers, ceramics, metals) with different properties to achieve high performance in aerospace, biomedicine,...
Regenerative Stenting for Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture Repair
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) are the most common complication of osteoporosis.Current treatment involves conventional procedures that inject cement into the vertebrae to...
Unraveling the impact of turbulence in Mixed-phase Clouds
Mixed-phase clouds—atmospheric complex three-phase systems containing suspended ice particles, supercooled water droplets, and water vapor—are responsible for most of the precipita...
The impacts of ocean fine-scale whirls on climate and ecosystems
WHIRLS is about small processes having large-scale impacts.Heat and carbon are the currencies of regional and global climate, constantly exchanged between the ocean and the atmosph...
Development of a biomimetic prototype to reduce microplastics emissions
Within ERC Starting Grant Mech-Evo-Insect, we have identified a new principle to filter small particles such as microplastics from water.This filtration principle is used in a vari...
Waves in the Inner Magnetosphere and their Effects on Radiation Belt Electrons
The magnetosphere is a natural plasma laboratory. Radiation belts in the magnetosphere are full of high energy particles.The energetic electrons in the Earth’s radiation belts can...
Agricultural Productivity and Technology Adoption in Sub-Saharan Africa
Agricultural productivity is strikingly low in much of Sub-Saharan Africa, exposing the large fraction of the population who lives from agriculture to low incomes and periods of hu...
Colloidal Indium Arsenide quantum dots as short-wave infrared single photon emitters
MOONSHOT aims at developing a novel single-photon emitting material that operates in the telecommunication wavelength range (1300-1600 nm, O- and C-bands) and is compliant with the...
Voices of Resistance: A Global Micro-Historical Approach to Enslavement across the Atlantic and Indian Ocean
Historiography suggests that the different ways in which people were enslaved (e.g. through war, kidnapping, debt, birth) mattered greatly for how they resisted and were treated un...
Learning from Bats: New Strategies to Extend Healthspan and Improve Disease Resistance
The medical, financial, and emotional costs imposed by ageing and infectious diseases are major challenges for our societies.Strikingly, while past research has not provided soluti...
Shining Light on Saturated Gluons
In this project the properties of hadronic matter with emergent non-linear saturation phenomena at extremely large parton densities are theoretically determined.This is achieved by...
The Ocean’S role in miTIgating climAte change: Mechanistic understanding of the legacy of anthropogenic heat and carbon in the ocean under net-negative carbon dioxide emissions
The ocean has absorbed vast amounts of “anthropogenic” carbon and heat (Canth and Hanth, respectively), due to humans' carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere and res...
Multiplexed microRNA detection platform for early diagnosis and patient management
Early detection of disease on a population scale (screening) relies on highly sensitive testing, able to detect early molecular changes, coupled with cost-effectiveness that enable...
The Quest for MAGNetIc Fields in A and F TYpe Stars
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous and have a substantial impact on galactic, stellar and planetary evolution and on life.Theoretical models imply that magnetic fields can affect stars...
Allosteric modulation of immune checkpoint complexes as a new mode of therapeutic intervention in immunotherapy
The fastidious balance of our immune system to fight infections or cancer while avoiding autoimmune reactions is regulated by coinhibitory and co-stimulatory immune checkpoint comp...
Charting Female Property and Patrimonial Rights in Law and Practice Across Western Europe (12th-16th Centuries)
From the mid-12th century, all over Europe, laws started to be enacted that hindered women from acquiring and managing wealth, triggering a long process that on the threshold of ea...
