Infrared nanospectroscopy to understand and combat Alzheimer's disease
Neurodegenerative diseases are a ticking time-bomb for health care systems because they are care-intensive and will soon become much more wide-spread due to increased life expectan...
Investigation of coupled bone and eggshell (de)mineralization during laying cycle of hens
Skeletal disorders in laying hens are a major concern for the food industry.It is well recognized that bone demineralization in laying hens is coupled to the daily mobilization of...
Cyto/hemocompatible magnetic hybrid NPs made of iron oxide/silver sulfide quantum dots with luminescence in the near-infrared region for combinational therapy of peritoneal metastasis
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is considered as the terminal stage of metastatic colon cancer, with still poor median survival rate even with the best recent chemotherapy (Chem) treatm...
Application of Metal-organic frameworks synthesized by Microfluidics in Microextraction for Metabolomics: development of a non-invasive bioanalytical method for early diagnosis of fatty Liver diseases
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disorder worldwide, which affects to around 25% of the population. It is associated with obesity and diabetes and...
Philosophy as Translation: Toward a Translational Education
The conviction at the heart of this project is that philosophy can no longer postpone systematic reflection on translation.This is not only due to a widespread ""translat...
Development of hybrid tip-enhanced IR-Raman microscopy for the study of molecular optomechanical upconversion
Optical control of mechanical oscillators of widely different dimensions are all described by the same cavity optomechanics interaction between phonons and photons inside a cavity....
Imagination in the Experience of Installation Art
Several works by Ernesto Neto present huge, warm-colored, pleasantly smelling Lycra tunnels.They are cases of installation art (IA): the public is supposed to enter the tunnels and...
Reactions in Microdroplets Accelerated by Plasma
Chemical reactions are normally conducted in bulk solution. In some cases, the rate of such bulk reactions is quite slow, limiting the throughput of a synthetic route.In recent yea...
Inborn errors of translation reinitiation in humans with Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is characterized by severe infections with weakly virulent mycobacteria in otherwise healthy patients.All known 31 genetic...
Immune Cell Death Zonation Regulated by Protein Hubs in Plants
Agriculture, which underpins the livelihoods of over 2.5 billion people, is nowadays confronted with an array of new threats including plant pests.This project tackles the urgent n...
Ion channels in erythrocytes: A novel understanding from regulation of erythropoiesis and physiological function to diagnostic measures and therapeutic concepts
Erythrocytes represent an estimated 84% of all cells in the human body.During circulation, they experience a huge variety of physical and chemical stimulations, such as pressure, s...
Kinship Systems in Gyalrong: History and Transformation
The Na-Qiangic (NQ) languages are an endangered subgroup in Sino-Tibetan (ST), spoken by ethnic minorities in the Hengduan Mountains of Southwest China.The NQ-speaking area is home...

The NanoHeadTail proposes a novel and original approach combining fluorescence microscopy and nanotechnology to resolve the morphological and rheological properties of the brain ex...
Sustainable Money
The next generations will not need a money designed for infinite long-term economic growth, but a sustainable money designed for managing limited and fragile common pool resources...
Real-time imaging and mechanistic analysis of Tau fibril disaggregation in live cells
Age-dependent neurodegenerative diseases associated with protein aggregation represent one of the most important medical and socio-economic challenges of our time. With the extensi...
Are big firm control and ownership structures crucially shaped by entwined fiscal policies?
CorpCONTROL-in-TAX aims to understand the role of taxation in explaining the development of widely dispersed share ownership in countries like the United Kingdom and the United Sta...
A drug screen for enhancers of adult neurogenesis in ageing: Drosophila as a new translationally-relevant platform
Ensuring a healthy lifespan in an increasingly ageing society represents a priority and a challenge for research and innovation.Particularly, irreversible neurodegenerative conditi...
Probing emergent phenomena in twisted WSe2 using THz-on-Chip spectroscopy
Understanding how strong electron-electron correlations shape the behavior of quantum materials is important both for fundamental scientific discovery and future technological appl...
