Unraveling how evidence accumulation determines conscious experience using voltammetry
Consciousness entails the phenomenal experience we have of the world and ourselves. Although it is at the heart of major philosophical, scientific and ethical issues, our understan...
Flexible Dimensionality of Representational Spaces in Category Learning
Our visual system frequently has to classify complex, high dimensional inputs. A key learning objective of the brain is thus to identify diagnostic dimensions. Often, tasks require...
A fully wearable electro-stimulating system designed to improve mobility and foot health in diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients
The NEURO-SOCK is a non-invasive, fully-wearable device designed to induce sensations in patients with sensory loss due to conditions such as amputation, diabetes, or multiple scle...
SpatioTemporal Reconstruction of Interacting People for pErceiving Systems
People constantly interact with objects to perform tasks. To help people accomplish these, computers need to perceive Human-Object Interactions (HOI), and for this, they need to re...
Physiological and evolutionary responses of cyanobacteria in a sustainable Mars exploration program
The worlds major space agencies share a goal of sending humans to Mars within the next few decades. A sustainable human presence there, akin to todays presence in Antarctica, could...
Cease or Persist: A multivariate mechanistic account of effortful persistence
Is this worth my effort? Should I persist and push through or give up and move on? We are constantly confronted with this fundamental question. Persisting through effortful endeavo...
Uncovering the cortical cellular basis of specificity and chronicity of pain
Chronic pain remains a fundamental unsolved puzzle in biology and an unmet global challenge in clinical practice. Progress is limited by major gaps in knowledge on neural substrate...
Flow NMR unmixing of reaction components
Chemical reactions are the universal path to new molecules, and are of central importance in science. The description of reactions is largely obtained once they are completed, with...
Preventing rejection and ensuring survival of grafts
The success of organ transplantation depends on the lifelong use of immunosuppressive drugs to prevent rejection of the donor cells by the recipients immune system. These immunosup...
Can blue economy interventions mitigate rural poverty and outmigration in land-drying eastern Africa?
Coastal and rural villages in Eastern Africa are more likely to have mitigated or even avoided poverty and outmigration during the last three decades of land desertification and na...
Tools for Protecting Data and Function Privacy
Privacy is a fundamental right and ideally both users’ data and organizations’ intellectual property are protected. Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) can protect data and funct...
REinforcement TWInning SysTems: from collaborative digital twins to model-based reinforcement learning
The concept of digital twins promises to revolutionize engineering by offering new avenues for optimization, control, and predictive maintenance. Digital twins seek to virtually re...
Humanitarian Observatories: Building a Knowledge and Advocacy Network on Humanitarian Governance
This project aims to test, demonstrate, and validate the effectiveness of country-based Humanitarian Observatories as a way for localized knowledge-building and reform in the human...
Scalable target identification for metabolic liver disease
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a prevalent liver disease that affects up to 6% of the general population and 15-40% of obese persons. MASH is characteri...
Harnessing mechanisms for plant carbon delivery to symbiotic soil fungi for sustainable food production
The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis between plants and symbiotic soil fungi confers key nutritional benefits to plants: AM fungi increase plant productivity by up to 30% by i...
Optimal Particle identification Of Single Site events with Underground MKIDs detectors
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay (0) would revolutionise our understanding of neutrinos by affirming their Majorana nature and shedding light on their absolute mas...
Getting SYMmetric CryPtography Out of its Comfort ZONe
Our lives are profoundly affected by the digitization of data, and the amount of sensitive data that is shared on cloud storage grows considerably every day.Whenever sensitive data...
Majorana zero mode control and detection platform
The non-abelian state of matter has not been experimentally confirmed and remains an important field of research. Its detection and manipulation are critical in order to develop a...
A road to remember: Neural plasticity through the lens of gut-brain interactions
The fact that the brain is influenced by the microorganisms that make up the gut microbiome substantially widens the scope of how we need to view human neurocognition and behaviour...
Unravelling the Politics of Basic Income: How Responsive Are Policymakers to Public Opinion?
In light of growing debates on the idea of basic income (BI), the BI-RESPONS project investigates under which conditions policymakers respond to public opinion about BI. I argue th...
