Deconvolving the early record of eukaryotic evolution
The Neoproterozoic Era (1 to 0.54 billion years ago) witnessed some of the most dramatic ecological and evolutionary changes in Earth history, which culminated in the appearance an...
Trapping and Killing Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma Multiforme(GB) is an aggressive brain cancer associated with a 2% 5-year survival rate and 250,000 new diagnoses globally.Gold standard treatment includes surgical res...
Realization and imaging of superconducting spin-wave optics
Spin waves are collective excitations of the spins in magnetic materials. They play a central role in the thermodynamics of magnets and are promising signal carriers in classical a...
On-chip tunable perovskite laser in the visible/near-infrared range
The availability of a tunable laser source in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) range is crucial for a variety of high-impact applications, such as frequency-modulated continuous...
Terahertz Spin Wave Logic
Finding a fundamentally new approach for data processing in the fastest and most energy efficient way is a frontier problem for applied physics and technology. The amount of data g...
Spatial and temporal regulation of cell competition
Every tissue in our body is a mosaic formed by individual cells that have different levels of cellular fitness. Competitive interactions, where the relative differences in fitness...
Valorization of Lactobacilli and their Antimicrobial Peptides for Reproductive and Intimate Health Enhancement
In an era marked by escalating concerns over antibiotic and antimycotic resistance as the next major global pandemic, the need to explore unconventional sources of antimicrobial ag...
Re-engineering symmetry breaking in development and evolution
Scientists have long sought to understand how complex multicellular organisms generate their final form. Yet despite considerable progress, demonstrating predictive knowledge suffi...
The Hidden Weapon. Blockade in the Era of the Two World Wars
The main aim of BLOCKADE is to investigate how blockades shaped the course, outcome and aftermath of the world wars. In both wars, belligerents sought to blockade their enemies, cu...
Hijacking small hydrophobic protein transport to deliver therapeutic agents to the central nervous system
Neurological disorders affect over 540 million individuals in Europe alone, yet effective treatments are limited, primarily due to the challenge of delivering therapeutic compounds...
Gating cell force sensors with tailor-made nanoswitches to restore tendon tissue function
It’s becoming increasingly clear that a deeper understanding of tendon mechanobiology is required for the development of effective therapies for tendon injuries and diseases. The i...
Aristotle One and Many. The Arabic Pseudepigrapha
The present project is focused upon a group of seminal sources, part and parcel of the formation of intellectual discourse in the Middle Ages, and forming a common basis of underst...
Quantifying AI-infused Science
The recent The recent public release of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that can master natural language has sparked a debate about the capabilities of AI and whether it can produce s...
Pathways to survival in a hotter world
Global warming and heatwaves hallmarks of climate change that are expected to worsen in the 21st century diminish reproductive success and cause excess mortality in wild and dome...
Cryptogam biodiversity dynamics under climate change in the Arctic and Antarctic poles
Earth’s polar regions are warming at unprecedented rates. Antarctica is experiencing rapid regional warming, and the Arctic has warmed up to four times the global average. In respo...
Renewing the World: A Philosophical History of Early Modern Ecology
This project undertakes the first comprehensive investigation of early modern ecology. NEWWORLD counters the standard historiographical argument that ecological concern is a recent...
Uncovering the mechanisms behind rapid motor adaptation in the brain using recurrent neural networks
Animals and humans learn some motor skills very slowly: for example, it takes about a year for a baby to learn to walk. In comparison, motor adaptation can be very fast. For exampl...
Post-Quantum Side-Channel Attack Resilience
In the rapidly evolving digital age, the advent of quantum computing poses a significant threat to current cryptographic standards, leaving sensitive information vulnerable to quan...
Global-Ig: a population-based antibody library technique to optimize the development of globally protective vaccines
As the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has demonstrated, vaccines that provide broad global protection are needed. However, human antibody genes are highly variable and thus, the quality of va...
Resolving troubling discord in Boreal versus Austral late Holocene temperature history
According to temperature reconstructions based on natural climate proxy archives (ice cores, lake sediments, tree rings etc.), Northern and Southern Hemisphere (NH, SH) temperature...
