Defusing mini-chromosomes—the Achilles’ heel of the wheat blast pandemic
PANDEMIC is an ambitious high-risk/high-gain program to deliver an innovative pathogen-guided strategy for crop disease resistance. The wheat blast pandemic is a clear and present...
Targeting kidney fibrosis by a novel myofibroblast specific small molecule inhibitor
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive disease that is prevalent in 10% of the developed world and develops as a result of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, glomerulonephriti...
New trends or old habits? Stability and changes of political styles since 1960
Hardly a week goes by without reports of elected officials – often pictured as ‘populists’ – having used vitriolic language and attacked the personal traits of their opponents.In a...
Exploration of Unknown Environments for Digital Twins
In the 'explorer' project, we will develop methods for automatically capturing and labelling video data in ""open worlds"".The ultimate goal is the gr...
Band-resolved imaging and nonlinear optical control of currents in topological materials
Topological materials have captured the imagination of scientists with unique electronic dispersions and surface states.While their potential seems huge - from advanced photodetect...
Tracking galaxy evolution with precise and accurate metal abundances in the interstellar medium
The introduction of heavy elements (metals) into the interstellar medium (ISM) via stellar feedback processes is crucial for the regulation of star formation and thus galaxy evolut...
Super-resolved stochastic inference: learning the dynamics of soft biological matter
The dynamics of biological systems, from proteins to cells to organisms, is complex and stochastic. To decipher their physical laws, we need to bridge between experimental observat...
Foraging, Fishing and Hunting as Agency in Colonial Central Africa (c. 1885 - c. 1960)
FORAGENCY offers a new take on indigenous agency in colonial Central Africa.It will study how local communities managed to counter, alleviate and/or minimize their encroachment by...
Terahertz graphene receiver for wireless communications
6th generation (6G) mobile broadband communications will transform the communications industry, leading to high speed networks capable of linking integrated communication, sensing,...
Migrations of Textual and Scribal Traditions via Large-Scale Computational Analysis of Medieval Manuscripts in Hebrew Script
MIDRASH aims to construct a groundbreaking interdisciplinary methodology for a global approach to the study of the treasure trove of medieval literary manuscripts in Hebrew script....
The key to precise and accurate cosmology: Simulating the physics that shapes gaseous haloes
Observational programs aimed at mapping the large-scale structure of the Universe, such as eROSITA and Euclid, are ushering in the era of Precision Cosmology.Our knowledge will soo...
The Celestial Road to a Holographic Description of Black Holes
Black holes are at the root of the most striking puzzles that arise when attempting to combine quantum mechanics and general relativity; they are therefore thought to be key to a f...
An integrative genetic approach for the exploration of melanoma immunological interactions
Immunotherapy, which has revolutionized cancer treatment, largely relies on the immune system’s recognition of neopeptides, degradation products of altered proteins specific to can...
Spatial 3D Semantic Understanding for Perception in the Wild
Understanding the 3D spatial semantics of the world around us is core to visual perception and digitization -- real-world environments are spatially three-dimensional, and must be...
Proportional Algorithms for Democratic Decisions
The project is set in the field of computational social choice.We will focus on formal models describing scenarios, where a group of individuals, called voters, disagrees on certai...
Paleo-MARE: a paleoecological approach to deciphering the impact of heavy metals on antibiotic resistance spread in the environment
Global biogeochemical cycles drive our planets health through the control of microbial habitats, nutrient availability and distribution, and exposure to reactive chemicals.By relea...
High-pressure nitride materials: towards the controllable and scalable synthesis in a diamond anvil cell
Over the past decade a branch of solid-state inorganic chemistry has emerged that aims the discovery of novel atypical compounds at high-pressure conditions.Nevertheless, the need...
Controlling Oxygen Selectivity at the Atomic Scale
Developing new materials with optimized catalytic properties is a crucial challenge towards sustainable energy production.In order to achieve this long-standing goal, fundamental u...
IMPROVED PREDICTABILITY OF EXTREMES OVER THE MEDITERRANEAN FROM SEASONAL TO DECADAL TIMESCALES
It is well-established that the Mediterranean is a climate change hot spot that warms faster than the global mean rates and the frequency of extremes increases. Moreover, climate m...
Continuous Digitalized Processes for Producing Biopharmaceuticals
Biopharmaceuticals are essential for the medical treatment of diseases like immune deficiencies, cancer, and diabetes, and provide an indispensable component to the health care sys...
