Inverse Design of Active Matter
Active matter (AM) represents a fascinating class of non-equilibrium systems whereby continuous energy dissipation generates unique, dynamic behavior.For instance, when active syst...
Combinatorial and Geometric Methods for Mapping Class Groups of Surfaces
Given a mathematical object, a common theme is to study the symmetries of that object.In this project, the objects are compact topological surfaces, and the group of symmetries is...
The Early Exploitation of Cetacean in Western Europe during the Late Upper Palaeolithic
The Whalebone project builds upon new advances in the study of past human adaptations to coastal environments, focusing on a key case study: early interactions between Late Upper P...
The African Origins of Western Canon Law. An Investigation into the Corpus canonum Africano-Romanum
In the proposed project, I aim to prepare a comprehensive study of the most important North African collection of canon law, the Late Antique Corpus canonum Africano-Romanum (CCAR)...
Cold antiProtons for Better Antimatter Research
The matter-antimatter asymmetry is a major unsolved problem in physics: Why do we live in a universe dominated by matter although physics tells us that equal amounts of matter and...
The role of developmental biases on the tempo of phenotypic evolution
Understanding the mechanisms that generate phenotypic variation and their impact on the course of evolution is a central challenge in modern biology.The genetic architecture of dev...
Accelerating ERA by Sharing Unique Talents for healThy Life and Environment
ERA_SHUTLLE is creating a cross-sectoral framework for collaboration and possibilities for talents from different backgrounds to address contemporary health and environmental chall...
From Insightful Science to Innovative Health: Strengthening Translational Capacity and Talent Interoperability in Vaccine and Biologic Research & innovation
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, biologicals and vaccines became regarded as salient pillars for disease prevention and control.However, strengthening preparedness for and response...
Single-atom decorated 2D catalysts for power-to-X conversion and sustainable future
High efficient Power-to-X technologies such as hydrogen production by water splitting, the electrocatalytic reduction reaction of carbon dioxide to fuels, and nitrogen reduction to...
Analysis of Transferrin Conformational changes that Impact Virulence and Evolution
Structural dynamics define the transition from one protein state to another and are modulated by interactions with partners-ligands and/or chemical modifications.They are important...
Development of artificial phosphoinositides aiming at HIV eradication
Main challenge of fighting with the HIV is to eliminate the latent viral reservoir from the body. This reservoir is resistant to antiretroviral drug therapy and can cause viral reb...
Cultivating Leaders for Innovative Coatings and Additive Manufacturing Applications
Too often, great research ideas as well as talented researchers from Europe are acquired by non-European players who turn them into impactful innovations whose economic benefits ar...
From maternal hormones to malaria susceptibility and accelerated ageing: new insights from wild birds.
For centuries, malaria has been a major global health concern, and despite intensive research efforts, malaria infection remains a key issue for many countries. Malaria parasites a...
3D printing electrodes for electrochemical nitrate to ammonia conversion: Towards a scalable preparation of cathodes for nitrate reduction electrolyzers
Ammonia is a fundamental molecule to produce fertilizers. It is one of the largest human-synthesized chemicals.Most of the ammonia is produced by the well-known Haber-Bosch (H-B) p...
The Mediterranean as a Laboratory of Globalisation: The Franco-Ottoman Cloth Trade, 1683-c.1715
In the early 1700s, France overcame English and Dutch competition to become the Ottoman Empire’s main European trading partner.To date, historians have focussed on Jean-Baptiste Co...
The flying timber: A glocal political ethnography of balsa extractivism and its implications for its main region of supply: the Ecuadorian Amazonia.
Balsa (ochroma pyramidale), is a type of timber that is mostly produced in Ecuadorian Amazonia. In fact, Ecuador is the world’s largest balsa producer 1 and it has been so for deca...
Musical Imitation in Medieval Europe (1110-1300)
The project will study the cultural interrelations between sacred music and lay vernacular lyric by uncovering and analysing the melodic imitations that occur between the two reper...
Laurion Contacts combined geological and archaeological study
Through LAURICON we will show that the geological age differences between the ore deposits (contacts) in the Laurion mining region can be systematically investigated by laboratory...
Environmental gentrification and emerging collectives in uncertain times
This project is an anthropological study of emerging forms of collective care at a moment where the interlocking crises of capitalism, democracy, and the environment have become mo...
A deep learning-derived, shear wave elastography biomarker for cancer therapy prediction
The efficacy of standard cancer therapies varies, and while some patients respond to a particular treatment, other patients do not gain any benefit.In response, an era of individua...
