The Word and the Brain: Rhetoric and Persuasion in Soul and Body
The power of words is not a metaphor.The word-and-brain entwinement, part of the mind-and-body relationship, has long been the focus of religious, philosophical, and scientific deb...
Development of human 3D organoid model of Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia, affecting over 50 million people worldwide.Characterized by memory loss, cognitive decline, and the formation of amyloid-...
Formic acid oxidation reaction as model reaction for curvature effect towards fuel cell development
Recently, it has been shown that the local catalyst structure plays a significant role in adsorption energies via the curvature effect. Currently, the curvature effect is mainly ba...
The Evolutionary Degeneration of Pollen in Asexual Dandelions
Dandelions (Taraxacum agg.) are one of the most important plants for insects, providing up to 80% of early spring pollen production in meadows.This high pollen production is surpri...
Development of high-stability manganese metal anodes via water-in-salt electrolytes for high-performance aqueous manganese ion batteries
This project aims to develop innovative energy storage solutions by focusing on high-concentration salt electrolytes that protect manganese (Mn) anodes in aqueous batteries.Aqueous...
Reimagining Borders & Rights through the Voices of Displaced/Stateless Women in Nepal
Hannah Arendt noted in the 1950s that human rights are dependent on the ‘right to have rights’. Gaps continue to exist in provisions of (inter)national frameworks of rights and in...
European periphery and the Yugoslav Understanding of Planning: Researching Ideas for Making Environmental Strategies
The project, ""European periphery and the Yugoslav Understanding of Planning: Researching Ideas for Making Environmental Strategies"" (E-YU-PRIME) aims to impro...
Next-gen Liquid Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry Technology for Unravelling the Plasma Proteome
NEXT-UP involves the development of a cutting-edge proteomics analytical platform for untargeted mass spectrometry (MS) based proteome profiling doubling the chromatographic resolv...
Glass at the Time of the Crusades: A new source for the socio-economic history of the Levant?
The so-called Mediterranean commercial revolution of the central middle ages coupled with the Crusader occupation of the Levant utterly reshaped the region's socio-economic la...
Health Economic Impact of Population-based Interventions for Prevention of Overweight and Obesity
Overweight and obesity account for one eighth of the disease burden and five percent of health care expenditures in Europe and cause large societal productivity losses.Thus, cost-e...
The so-called mos gallicus: In Search of a Transnational History of the “French method of teaching law”
Legal history, as taught in faculties of law, tends to overemphasise the national framework, leading to the knowledge transmission that suffers from old-fashioned nationalistic bia...
Interplay of CMV with cellular pathways, states and cell types
The herpesvirus human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), the largest known human virus, is a ubiquitous pathogen that infects the majority of the world's population.Although subclinical...
Immune-Me-on-a-Chip: A Personalized-Immunized-Human In Vitro Platform for Studying Human Physiology and Biological Threats
Understanding how the adaptive immune system works is of monumental scientific importance.It is remarkable, then, that despite the sophisticated modeling technologies available tod...
Foundations of Algorithmic Contract Theory
Algorithmic game theory (AGT) lies at the intersection of algorithms and incentives, offering a framework for the design of algorithms that provide incentives for collaboration in...
Animal cell types across evolutionary timescales: from regulatory characters to cell phylogenies
Cell types are the basic constituents of animal multicellularity, with each type defined by a gene regulatory program that specifies cell function and structure. Thus, understandin...
Tailoring the plasticity of intermetallics - from understanding and predicting deformation mechanisms to new materials
TAILORPLAST focuses on understanding and predicting plastic deformation mechanisms in intermetallic phases for advanced structural and functional materials.The traditional approach...
Dynamical Response of Entangled Quantum Matter
The interplay of correlations and quantum fluctuations in condensed matter can give rise to topological phases with unexpected and exciting properties.While originally proposed for...
Why evening-types accumulate health issues and die younger than others?
Individuals differ in daily timing of sleepwake behavior, alertness, body temperature, cardiovascular functions and hormonal secretion, having innately different circadian types fr...
Active Hybrid Photonic Integrated Circuits for Ultra-Efficient Electro-Optic Conversion and Signal Processing
Information and communication technology (ICT) crucially relies on the combination of two highly complementary fields: Microelectronics, which excels in processing and storing info...
