Toward efficient and environmentally-friendly cooling using active electrocaloric regeneration
Cooling accounts for 17 % of total global electricity consumption.Vapor compression cooling dominated the markets, whichuses refrigerants that can leak to the environment and exhib...
A computational approach to studying how narratives can promote and support the reception of atypicality
Among the lessons learned from the recent pandemic is the importance of embracing the unconventional.Indeed, atypical approaches have proved to be a key strategic resource for copi...
Development of advanced bioglass-polymer scaffolds for OSTEOCHONdral interface tissue regeneration
Damage to the osteochondral interface (OCI) is a serious health problem associated with the development of osteoarthritis affecting the lives of millions of people. However, curren...
Capacity, Opportunity, and Desire in Heritage Language Variation (CODE-V)
Capacity, Opportunity and Desire in Heritage Language Variation (CODE-V) offers a novel approach, never used in this capacity in this context before, to examine a significantly und...
Memory in Times of Crisis: Argentina, Spain and Greece, 1998 to now
MeTC examines how people in networked societies recall the recent past (ReP) in times of economic recession through the lens of social media (SoM).It explores the connections betwe...
Light-induced macroscopic assembly under dissipative conditions: communication between artificial swimmers
Nature exploits transient self-assembled architectures that require a continuous input of energy to express functional properties across length scales.The development of synthetic...
The ecophysiology of sleep under global change
Sleep is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom and serves essential biological functions, yet, sleep incurs substantial costs in terms of increased vulnerability to predators and reduce...
Cross-linguistic influence in third language acquisition: Sentence processing and comprehension by child heritage bilinguals
The project TomRis (Cross-linguistic influence in Third language acquisitiOn: Sentence processing and coMprehension by child heRItage bilingualS) advances our knowledge about the f...
Druggability of G-quadruplexes, promising modulators for antimicrobial resistance
The antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an underrated problem promoted by widespread misuse and massive use of antibiotics. Thus, the health systems are facing enormous costs to trea...
Observing Binaries in Transition Discs
Star formation begins when the densest regions in molecular clouds collapse under their own weight forming so called young stellar objects (YSOs), i.e. protostars surrounded by a g...
Motivic Integral p-adic cohomologies
This project aims to study p-adic cohomologies of varieties using tools from motivic homotopy theory. Voevodsky's theory of motives has played a crucial role in solving deep m...
Reflection in warped accretion disks around black holes
Black holes are the most extreme and compact objects in the universe.Since their theoretical prediction, scientists have tried to shed light on these objects that swallow everythin...
Scalable quantum algorithms in highly noisy environments
Quantum computers bring the promise of solving efficiently problems that would take a considerable amount of time on the best classical computers. This is called the quantum speedu...
Pan-Ideologies in Central Europe: Paradoxes of Right-Wing Self-Orientalism.
The rise of right-wing populism in Central Europe coincides with the revival of pan-ideologies.Cases of Turanism promoted by the ruling party in Hungary and Pan-Slavism popular amo...
Sensorimotor Integration, Motor Planning and Learning In FLY
We are constantly learning new motor skills throughout our life.Whether riding a bicycle or playing an instrument, motor learning relies on a calibration between sensory signals an...
Towards a Mechanistic Understanding of Nanoparticle Interactions with Exosome Secretion
In recent decades, considerable progress has been made in bio-nano research towards a growing understanding of the interaction mechanisms between nanoparticles (NPs) and living sys...
Single-atom Catalysis in Photocatalytic Investigations
In the light of environmental and energy supply crises, new technologies which can satisfy mankind's energy demand in a sustainable way must be developed.Heterogeneous photoca...
THE PATIENT LED COMMONIFICATION OF HEALTHCARE?’ the case of DIY-Diabetes: an ethnographic Study
The aim of this project is to examine how commons-based peer production is impacting healthcare ecosystem dynamics and the lived experience of people with diabetes (PwD).The projec...
Supramolecular organization and dynamics of presynaptic proteins
Since the prophetic vision of the German scientist Emil du Bois-Reymond in 1877 that put forward the hypothesis of the chemical nature of synaptic transmission, a large number of b...
Development of a multilayered and bioprinted iPSC-derived retinal model with use in preclinical and toxicological testing
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) encompass the most prevalent cause of vision-loss in elderly people in developed countries.One of the main hurdles restraining the developmen...
