Beauty and Inequality: Physical Appearance, Symbolic Boundaries and Social Dis/advantage in Five Global Cities
How does physical beauty contribute to social inequality?This innovative multi-disciplinary comparative project aims to build a comprehensive new theory that explains how evaluatio...
Development of a marketable adjuvant candidate for vaccine applications
ADJUVACCINE seeks to leverage a breakthrough made in the ERC-2016-STG-716878 project to validate a synthetic technological platform for the scalable production of identified optimi...
Towards the prevention of rebound effects within complex socio-technical systems
Society´s most well-intended efforts to solve sustainability challenges have not yet achieved the expected gains due to rebound effects, which are unintended consequences of interv...
Diffractive Optical Element Fabrication based on 3D Printing
Diffractive Optical Elements (DOEs) are used to shape the wavefront of incident light in complex patterns, and are ubiquitous across optical applications, ranging from laser proces...
How do diazotrophs shape the ocean biological carbon pump? A global approach, from the single cell to the ecosystem
Diazotrophs regulate marine productivity in 60% of our oceans by alleviating nitrogen limitation, contributing to carbon (C) sequestration through the N2-primed Prokaryotic C Pump...
Numerically exact theory of transport in strongly correlated systems at low temperature and under magnetic fields
Transport in strongly correlated materials is one of the central topics in condensed matter physics.Due to major prospects for technological applications, particular attention is p...
Nanofluidic Catalytic Reaction Imaging
How can we “see” a catalytic reaction on a single nanoparticle? While our eyes use visible light to create a vivid perception of our world, they are unable to resolve the nanoscale...
Off the Road: The Environmental Aesthetics of Early Automobility
In times of climate crisis, there is wide agreement that we need a more environmental approach to automobility. “Off the Road” addresses this challenge by highlighting a largely fo...
Circular RNA Therapeutics for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
RNA therapeutics is an emerging field explored in various types of diseases such as genetic disorders, cancer, inflammation and viral infections.Currently, most of the research foc...
The Canonisation of the Quranic Reading Traditions
The perfect preservation of the Quran back to the time of Muhammad, Islam’s founder, is a contentious topic.In the popular imagination, each syllable printed in the Quran today is...
SArkisov Program in HIgher Dimension, over Imperfect fields and for birRegulous maps
A fundamental goal of Algebraic Geometry is to classify algebraic varieties up to isomorphism. This is extremely hard, already for surfaces, and open in general.It has become clear...
Synchronised Politics: Multiple Times and Political Power
Democratic policy-makers in Europes multi-level system grapple with multiple times, since different levels of government, parliaments and administrative agencies follow distinct ti...
Developing tree ring genomics to understand the genetic basis of and predict forest response to climate change
Economically important and ecologically dominant conifers are succumbing to drought, disease, early-budding and other challenges globally because mature trees are no longer adapted...
Production of a second phase of hydrophobic aromatics with solvent-tolerant Pseudomonas
Replacement of fossil chemicals with biological counterparts has been widely accepted as a vital pursuit to increase the sustainability of our chemical and material industries.Synt...
Nanoscale Integrated Magnetic Field Sensor
Magnetic sensors are present everywhere in our daily lives. We often use them in cars, robotics, medical applications, for power sensing, electronic compass, etc.Among them, magnet...
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPLOITATION OF POLITICAL ECONOMICS
We need a theory to explain why society has so far failed to address climate change and other environmental problems.After all, it has been able to deal with other challenges, rang...
Extreme-Ultraviolet Meta-Optics for Attosecond Microscopy
Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light sources have matured, both in brightness, as well as in producing ever shorter attosecond light pulses. Contrary, transmissive EUV optics remain spa...
Machine Learning for Offensive Computer Security
Despite a long series of research, computer attacks still pose a major threat to the security of digital systems.Different malicious actors, such as cybercriminals and intelligence...
Causal Pattern Analysis of Networked Economic Sovereignty
The legal concept of sovereignty does not capture foreign trade relations, networks or economic clout. This shortcoming has resulted from a historical reduction of its meaning sinc...
Mechanism of vertebrate sperm-egg recognition and fusion
The life of every sexually reproducing being can be traced back to a singular event: the fusion of sperm and egg. Gamete fusion is perhaps the most critical step in the process of...
