Radical Habits of the Heart: Emotions, Embodiment and Strong, Individual Commitment in Ancient Radical Religion
More than two decades of intense radical religion research since 9/11 has brought attention to radicalisation, violence, and radical beliefs, and a strong emphasis on Islam in the...
Combinatorially and Algebraically Decomposing Search spaces: Better Worst-case Bounds for Hard Search Tasks
Search tasks are computational tasks with a curious property: while their solutions are easily verifiable when given, finding those solutions from scratch appears much more arduous...
Understanding the mechanisms of neuronal secretory autophagy
Neurons transmit information by connecting with other neurons over long distances through their dendrites and axons. Repeated stimulation places a high metabolic demand on these ce...
Repurposing the CRISPR-associated transposons (CAST) system for gene editing applications
The rapid advancements in CRISPR-Cas technology have revolutionized gene editing, yet significant challenges persist, particularly the reliance on DNA Damage Response (DDR) pathway...
Automatic Decision making and JUSTice: artificial intelligence, court actors and the right to a fair trial
ADJUST investigaADJUST investigates the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Automated Decision-Making (ADM) in judicial systems, focusing on their impact on fair trials...
Recycling versus loss in the marine nitrogen cycle: controls, feedbacks, and the impact of expanding low oxygen regions
RECLESS will predict how ongoing ocean deoxygenation impacts microbial nitrogen transformations and thereby the future availability of nitrogen to support oceanic primary productio...
Continual and Sequential Learning for Artificial Intelligence
Machine Learning systems, while promising, lack the autonomy needed for many real-world applications beyond mere proof-of-concept stages. The key challenge lies in enabling AI to c...
Rise and Demise of Industrial Modernity
Contemporary societies are underpinned by industrial modernity: a set of commonly shared ideas, institutions and practices related to the natural environment and technoscience. Hav...
Entrenched: Elite Capture and Social Mobility
New democracies often inherit entrenched political or economic elites who retain substantial influence over policymaking. This project studies a number of systematic and idiosyncra...
Technologically mediated landscapes: Examining the adaptive benefit of the early Oldowan.
Tool production is intrinsically tied to the evolution of our species as it allows us to occupy nearly every environment on the planet. The widespread production of sharp-edged too...
Assessing childRen manIpulation and Exploration skiLls
Investigating object manipulation is crucial for the comprehension of child development and the early assessment of sensorimotor impairments. However, no current available methods...
Exploring the impact of anisotropic viscosity on the interplay between ice and mantle dynamics
The loss of ice mass from polar and high-elevation regions is a significant contributor to global sea level rise and affects climate and biosphere changes. Due to its importance, a...
Community Through Constitution. REsearching how CONstitutions Construct Identity and LEgitimacy in Europe and MENA
Constitutionalism provides a shared-meaning space, in which the idea of rights has served to emancipate individuals. This rights-based constitutionalism is in decline. It has ossif...
Overcoming PAncreatic cancer immunotherapy resistance: developing PYRimidine receptor antagonists
The introduction of immunotherapy revolutionized cancer treatment, nevertheless, pancreatic cancer is still an omen of death with a dismal 5-year survival rate. Improvement of the...
Real-time Multiscale Imaging of Pathological Calcification - Zooming in on Aortic Valve Calcification
Calcifying Aortic Valve Disease (CAVD) is a cellular-driven disease that actively alters the structure and composition of the valve extracellular matrix, leading to severe disfunct...
Remote Work and Social Change: An Anthropological Approach
Remote work has become normalised as an important aspect of people’s lives across different professions, social classes and geographic regions. In the knowledge economy, work is no...
Low-loss fiber coupler
This ERC Proof of Concept (PoC) project aims to demonstrate a low-loss fibre-to-chip coupler, a critical component for the PI’s ERC project QAMP (101042414). While QAMP focuses on...
The first comprehensive Atlas of the Milky Way
The Milky Way is the cosmic environment in which the solar system, the Earth, and life as we know it came into being. It is also the veil through which we peer into the extra-galac...
Retina-Seal: Gene therapy mediated regulation of the blood retina barrier
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible central blindness in the world. The number of people with AMD is predicted to be 288 million by 2040, wi...
Spatial Transcriptomics through the lenses of statistical modeling and AI
In recent years technological advances have made it possible to quantify the mRNA expression of large numbers of genes while preserving the spatial context of tissues and cells. Th...
