Regulation of membraneless organelles through phosphatase-DYRK kinase feedback
As the demographics of Europe and other developed countries shift ever older, neurodegenerative diseases involving aberrant protein aggregation grow more common but still lack effe...
Beyond the local. The innovation effects of citizen supralocal networks and organizations in citizen-initiated urban transformations
Citizen initiatives in our cities are developing innovative answers to local public needs, through direct actions such as urban transformation processes.Urban scholars have interpr...
Mortality Risk Attributable to Thermal Discomfort Indicators with Implications of Climate Change
A rapidly growing body of studies attribute mortality outcomes to thermal exposures, by empirically estimating reduced-form mortality responses to meteorological fields, usually am...
Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Ritual and Ancient Greek Experience of Sacred Spaces
The experience of religious ritual played a key role in ancient societies, as it negotiated ideas of cosmology and identity.By addressing the cosmos, participation in rituals forge...
Rotational mechanical effects of sound
The exploratory studies on sound-matter interaction are to date one of the most promising directions as fundamentalresearch which can be used practically in rheology, medical imagi...
The Neanderthal nose: reconstruction of shape, function and adaptations
The project N-SPIRE addresses the topic of human adaptation to climate, through the study of the morphology and function of the nose in the extinct human species Homo neanderthalen...
A Lagrangian approach: from conservation laws to line-energy Ginzburg-Landau models
The core of this project is the Lagrangian Representation (LR) and the interplay of this novel Geometric Measure Theory (GMT) tool with the study of 1st-order, nonlinear Partial Di...
Understanding the Role of Automatic Partner Attitudes in Relationship Functioning
Romantic relationships are essential for promoting health and reducing mortality risks.However, remaining satisfied with a long-term romantic partner is notoriously difficult, as i...
Rethinking Exchange: An Historical Inquiry into Self-love, Speech and Sociability
The recent lockdown brought the commercial interaction of everyday life to a stop for most people in the world at almost the same time.This resulted in a general isolation that hig...
Microfossils and data science: a new approach to infer the impact of global climate on plankton Macroecology
One of the most pressing scientific challenges today is understanding the fate of our oceans and marine ecosystems under on-going climate change.Unfortunately, anthropogenic stress...
Hebrew and Aramaic Lexical Substrate of Palestinian Arabic
As in other cases of language shift, many traditional agricultural tools and practices in Palestinian Arabic are referred to by Hebrew and Aramaic substrate words. Studies dedicate...
Soft Amphibious MicroRobot fabricated by Additive Integrated manufacturing
Current healthcare systems are facing major challenges due to the recent global pandemic.The human-human interaction has become hazardous as infection rates rise and healthcare wor...
Diagrammatic Quantum Computation
Existing quantum computers are on the verge of solving practical problems that are intractable for classical computers.The obstacles that are holding current generation quantum com...
IMaging Ocean Sinkers for evaluating carbon export fluxes
It is becoming increasingly evident that small changes in the efficiency of the Biological Carbon Pump BCP can significantly alter ocean carbon sequestration and, thus, atmospheric...
How a Nation is Born: Reconstructing Four Centuries of Brazilian Economic Growth
This project reconstructs series for Brazil’s population, prices, wages, welfare ratios, gross domestic product (GDP), and GDP per capita from the seventeenth century to 1920.This...
Global Interlinkages in Food Trade Systems
Food demand is increasingly satisfied with imported products from distant locations.This makes countries and consumers more vulnerable to supply chain disruptions and price spikes,...
Rural transformation and structural change – A new spatial perspective on trade-offs in household decision-making in low-income countries
Understanding the decision-making of smallholder households in low-income countries is a crucial step in the design of effective policy measures for development.This task is becomi...
The role of chromosome conformation in DNA double-strand break repair
The integrity of eukaryotic genomes is constantly challenged by various endogenous and exogenous insults, whereby DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are particularly problematic.DSBs...
A stem cell-based approach for modelling implantation in vitro
The first physical contact between the embryo and the uterus is a complex and timely coordinated process, which is crucial for positive pregnancy outcome. During that process of im...
Breaking the penetration limit of microscopy – Photoswitching Optoacoustics
SWOPT is a novel imaging technology that will break through the penetration limits of optical microscopy to visualize individual cells and their function in vivo through several mi...
