Engineering antibodies in B cells using endogenous AID activity
The AutoEngineering project aims to develop an innovative strategy for B cell engineering by exploiting natural DNA breaks to generate antibodies that surpass common reactivity pro...
Unravelling the pRotein Allosterome of Gene Expression
Understanding how different environmental cues influence cellular physiology is critical but challenging.Small molecule metabolites such as nutrients and signalling molecules carry...
Microfluidic Tuning of Individual Nanoparticles to Understand and Improve Electrocatalysis
Transition metal based nanoparticles (NPs) are envisioned as viable alternatives to the scarce precious metal based catalysts used today for renewable energy conversion.Yet, probin...
Reconstructing Late Medieval Quests for Knowledge: Quodlibetal Debates as Precursors of Modern Academic Practice
ACADEMIA proposes a pioneering study of a neglected corpus of manuscripts stemming from the practice of quodlibetal debates held at Faculties of Arts of European universities, flou...
Duality in Market Design: Theory and Applications
Market design uses economic theory to improve the function of real-world marketplaces, such as matching systems and auctions. In many markets, participants trade goods which are in...
effIcieNt Small scale uniT for distributed heAt and hydrogeN generaTion
The project task is the development and validation of an efficient catalytic fuel processor as the key component of smallscale units for combined heat and power (CHP) generation in...
Diadenosine Polyphosphate Alarmones as Drivers for Protein AMPylation
It is puzzling that the human genome has only slightly more genes than the fruit fly and only half the number of cauliflower.Obviously, the sheer number of genes alone cannot deter...
Preventing unnecessary biopsies in the diagnosis pathway of cervical cancer.
The goal of the DIADEPH project is to develop a “Business Proposition Package” that could enable our group to eventually bring a new non-invasive gynaecological device to market.Th...
An in-memory dataflow accelerator for deep learning
Deep neural networks (DNNs), loosely inspired by biological neural networks, consist of parallel processing units called neurons interconnected by plastic synapses.By tuning the we...
Financial Information, Data Abundance, and Investment
Thierry Foucault ERC ADG 2020Recent years have witnessed a massive growth in the volume and variety of data (""Data Abundance"").In parallel, thanks to progress...
Reverse engineering the assembly of the hippocampal scaffold with novel optical and transgenic strategies
We aim at shedding a unique light on hippocampal function at circuit level through the design of a novel method to trace the construction of brain circuits in health and disease ba...
Discretization and adaptive approximation of fully nonlinear equations
Fully nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE) arise in many applications ranging from physics to economy.They are different from PDEs in mechanics, and the PDE theory relies...
Nonequilibrium Terahertz Dynamics of Interacting Quantum Spins: from Novel Driven States towards Coherent Controls
The study of non-equilibrium dynamics of magnetic degrees of freedom has shown remarkable progress over the past two decades. This is in particular true concerning the understandin...
The Picture Pile Platform
There has been tremendous progress in artificial intelligence (AI) in many different fields due to improved machine learning algorithms, advances in computing power and the availab...
Integration of the Biochemical and Mechanical Networks of Cell Division
Cellular and sub-cellular organisation at the micrometre length scale ultimately reflects the activity of molecular networks that harness chemical energy to perform precise mechani...
Urbanization, everyday life and techno-social differentiation
The pattern of contemporary, global urbanization is shifting. New geographies are being produced, with uncertain consequences for urban inequality.Vital here is surging investments...
Housing, Inequality and Public Policies
In light of rapidly increasing prices of housing, gentrification and increasing regional inequalities within and across cities in many countries, I study the effectiveness of vario...
Proof of Concept for a Platform for the Fast and General Elucidation of the Interaction Between Proteins and RNA
The aim of this project is to bring together subject matter experts from the academic and non-academic sectors to establish proof-of-concept of the utility of a new platform for fa...
Development of an innovative Gas Turbine Chemical Looping Combustor for Carbon Negative Power Generation
Climate Change is the major global challenge of this century, with significant ramifications on human life. Unfortunately it is unlikely that agreed climate targets can be met with...
Metabolic heterogeneity of monoclonal bacterial cells as a biotechnological tool to produce natural compounds.
This proposal aims to change current paradigms of biotechnological production of complex plant natural compounds, specifically isoprenoids such as limonene, menthol, and p-cymene.M...
