Microbial performance impacted by surfactants from glyphosate application
Glyphosate is the most widely applied herbicide on Earth, exhibits potential toxicity, and persists in the environment, although microbial glyphosate degradation exists.Glyphosate...
Endogenous Human Herpesvirus: Germ line integration and effects on host cell and organism
Endogenous viruses present in the human genome control physiological processes, modulate aging, and can cause diseases.Intriguingly, a herpesvirus has entered the human germ line b...
Versatile optical frequency comb
Frequency combs are optical sources that can be used as rulers. Any unknown frequency can be very precisely measured by comparing it to the nearest tooth of the comb.The technology...
Cryptographic Foundation for Secure and Scalable Distributed Systems
Many of today’s criticaMany of today’s critical infrastructures such as power grids or cellular networks are distributed systems which arecomprised of autonomous nodes connected ov...
Mean curvature flow: singularity formation beyond 2 convexity and applications
Geometric flows as a mean to attack problems in topology, geometry and physics, had been demonstrated to be an extremely powerful tool.The most successful such flow to date is the...
Soft-exoskeleton suit To Restore Autonomous Locomotion
Imagine putting on a pair of pants, it feels soft like ordinary clothing fabrics, but unlike any other, this one is made of high-performance robotic soft actuators and soft sensors...
Next-Generation of Interior models of (Exo)planets:Studying the interior structure of giant planets and its effect on their evolution, atmospheres and observations
The prevalence of metals in exoplanet atmospheres is considered an important tracer of the formation of gas giants.However, the current theoretical framework is founded on the crit...
A novel NASH model for target and drug candidate identification
NASH is the progressive form of NAFLD that underlies the development of fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The global prevalence of NASH is estimated at 1 billion i...
Using super-resolved in situ sequencing to reveal the cellular encoding of immune-tumour contact events
Despite the constant surveillance of immune cells, tumour cells can still evade the immune response. Unravelling the interactions of T cells and B cells with tumour cells can shed...
Bioactive lipids Regulate Adaptive Immune responses in Neurodegeneration: novel target for treatment?
Traditionally, AD is regarded as a neurodegenerative disease and as such, the major focus has been on investigating and treating neurodegeneration and neuronal functioning.Only the...
Breaking resistance of pathogenic bacteria by chemical dysregulation
Antibiotic resistant bacteria are on the rise and could trigger the next global pandemic. For some pathogens no treatment options are left, leading to steadily increasing death tol...
TARGETING INHERITED CANCER SYNDROMES
Transcription factors EB and E3 (TFEB and TFE3), members of the MiT-TFE family, are master controllers of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy.The activity of TFEB and TFE3 is regula...
Engineering Excited States, Orbital Coupling and Quantum Coherence Phenomena in Photoelectrochemical Energy Conversion Devices
Excited aims to advance fundamental understanding to light-initiated reactions in molecular sensitizers that can display quantumcoherent behaviour in their excited state dynamics a...
Extended degrees of freedom in QFT
Quantum field theory (QFT) is the formalism that underlies modern particle and condensed matter physics.Standard perturbative methods in QFT have been extraordinarily successful in...
Trust-by-Design – Strong Security Arguments for Symmetric Key Cryptography
Symmetric cryptographic primitives protect a large percentage of today's data, whether in transit or storage. This trend is going to increase even more in the future.Consequen...
Roman Making and its Meanings: Representations of Manual Creation in the Literature and Art of Imperial Rome
How did the ancient Romans respond to the material world around them? This project, FACERE, proposes a new way of approaching this question.It studies ‘making’ – the processes by w...
Tracing the Epipalaeolithic origins of plant management in southwest Asia
The transition from foraging to farming represents one of the most transcendental shifts in the history of humanity.Decades of research in southwest Asia have shown that this proce...
CHerenkov Light mOdulE for time-of-flight Positron Emission Tomography
Time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) is the standard-of-care in cancer detection. TOF-PET scanners’ performance is dependent on the radiation detectors they use.Im...
Viable, safe and sustainable PHBV value chain for food packaging applications
The European plastics policy highlights bio-based plastics as a key piece to solve the negative impact of fossil-based plastics in the environment.One of the most promising biodegr...
Improving the cirCUlarity of complex plastic multi-material composites using novel BIobased materials in B2B semi-finished produCts
The general objective of CUBIC project is to improve the sustainability and circularity of complex products made of high-tech advanced multi-material composite thermoset and thermo...
