How Processions Moved: Sound and Space in the Performance of Urban Ritual, c.1400–c.1700
Processions were quintessentially performative acts that infused a sense of identity among the urban community by linking the emblematic topography of the city and creating perform...
Relative Langlands Functoriality, Trace Formulas and Harmonic Analysis
The Langlands program is a web of vast and far-reaching conjectures connecting seemingly distinct areas of mathematics that are number theory and representation theory.At the heart...
ViEWS – a political Violence Early Warning System
This application presents a plan to explore the societal potential and financial viability of ViEWS – a political Violence Early WarningSystem, which has been developed as part of...
Correlation-driven metallic topology
Developments in the past decade have shaped the term topological quantum matter.In the solid state, much progress has been made on non- and weakly-interactingsystems and correlated...
Fluorides for 2D Next-Generation Nanoelectronics
The IRDS roadmap considers two-dimensional (2D) materials a promising option for scaling electronicdevices down to atomic dimensions.While there has been a lot of progress regardin...
Mythical Discourse and Religious Agency in the Puranic Ecumene
The Puranas (Primordial Texts) constitute the most voluminous and enduring genre of Sanskrit literature.These anonymous texts narrate the mythic cycles associated with the major de...
Non-Hermitian elastodynamics
The properties of artificial materials can be tailored to exhibit extraordinary properties by cleverly engineering their composition. The development of such metamaterials is a pro...
Blood flow induced thrombosis and stenosis due to cannulation – an interdisciplinary study
In extracorporeal organ support (ECOS), one or more organ functions fail and are replaced by an artificial device. Kidney failure requires hemodialysis, at least until transplantat...
MagMech: Precision magnetic tweezers for the mechanobiology of cells and tissues.
The mechanobiology of cells and tissues plays an essential role in physiology and diseases.This emerging field at the frontier between physics, engineering and biology, heavily rel...
Virus Inhibition by siRNA Optimized by NMR
The last two years, profoundly marked by the COVID-19 sanitary crisis, have demonstrated the difficulties to answer adequately to the emergence of novel pathogenic viruses. Today,...
3Dwheat, A 3 Dimensional functional genomics approach to identify hidden targets controlling heat stress and priming in wheat
In the global warming era, heat stress is a major threat for both yield stability and yield increase. Plants have evolved a variety of sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to challeng...
Site-selective C(sp3)–H functionalization with gaseous reagents using Hydrogen Atom Transfer photocatalysis in flow
An essential part of synthetic organic chemistry is the conversion of raw materials into highly complex molecules.While traditionally this has been achieved through conversion of f...
The evolution of neural circuits for navigational decisions - from synapses to behavior
Of the 1.2 million animal species described on Earth, more than 80% are insects.As for mammals, each insect is equipped with a brain that has evolved to optimally control the speci...
Subliminal learning in the Mandarin lexicon
Central to this research project is the observation that there are regularitiesand systematicities in the spoken language that escape our awareness, that are shielded from us by li...
Pension reforms and healthy ageing in Italy and Europe: quasi-natural experimental analysis of linked health and pension datasets
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many European countries to spend money that they do not have.This is creating unprecedented levels of debt and will inevitably lead to pressure for...
Thermostable vaccines to enable global immunization
With GLOBEVAC we present a novel solution to make vaccines thermostable, enabling global immunization by avoiding the need for cold chain logistics.Vaccines are one of the most suc...
Why a new neutrino telescope? Because we can.
For over a century, ultra-high energy cosmic rays (CR) have been observed by scientists, but their energy and place of production remain a mystery.At very high energies, neutrinos...
Fishing Architecture: The Ecological Continuum between Buildings and Fish Species
To what extent can fish produce architecture?This project sets out to trace a socioecological history of North Atlantic architecture in relation to fisheries, elucidating the relat...
Crystals of single chirality via non-equilibrium routes
The molecular building blocks of life are of only one handedness. Consequently, pharmaceuticals and other bioactive molecules also need to be of one handedness.When such enantiomer...
n-Dimensional analysis and memorisation ecosystem for building cathedrals of knowledge in Heritage Science
The research on cultural heritage makes the confrontation between material objects and multidisciplinary studies the arena for the production of collective knowledge.In the digital...
