Biological Impact of Benzoxazinoid Metabolization by a Specialist Root Herbivore
Some herbivores can sequester and use plant secondary metabolites for their own defense.Despite many examples of sequestration, the impact of these compounds on herbivore performan...
Short-term rentals and housing financialisation. Evidence and policy innovation
The success of digital platforms such as Airbnb and the subsequent proliferation of short-term rentals in cities have caused many challenges for local authorities, especially regar...
Identifying new anti-cancer drugs by computational multi-target approaches targeting the Gquadruplex DNA
The goal of the proposed research is to develop computational methodology which can screen out small ligand molecules having potential to selectively target G-quadruplex (G4) DNA w...
Ecological genomics of vertebrates across environmentally hostile naturally fragmented paleosurfaces
Long-term population persistence in fragmented landscapes is of interest to evolutionary and conservation biologists.Although the causes of population fragmentation and their effec...
Novel electrode materials for high performing aqueous organic redox flow batteries.
The aim of this 2-year fellowship is to develop novel and robust electrodes to improve the performance of Aqueous Organic Redox Flow Batteries (AORFBs) for renewable energy storage...
Characterization of the gene and protein networks regulated by Staufen 2 in neurogenesis and their alterations in AD
Neurogenesis is a crucial process by which new neurons are formed in the brain through the conversion of Neuronal stem cells (NPCs).Altered neurogenesis has been identified in Alzh...
Origin and maintenance of biodiversity: An ecological, evolutionary and developmental theory of organisms’ interactions
Ecological interactions are the backbone of ecosystems and play an essential role in the availability of the services they provide. These interactions are to a large extent dictate...
MiRNAs as therapeutics for neurorepair in Multiple Sclerosis
I hope to embark my first post-doctoral position, as a MSCA fellow, to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in demyelination/remyelination processes with the final intention of mod...
The Effectiveness of Joint Collective Action in Promoting Social Change
The last century has been characterized by the growth of grassroots social movements and large-scale collective action aimed at advancing equality, some of which has involved histo...
Sustainable route for circularity of renewable polyesters
During the years it has been shown that the problem of the environmental impact due to the dispersion in the environment of organic materials recalcitrant to biodegradation (e.g. p...
Holistic training of next generation Osteoarthritis researchers
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the single most common cause of disability in older adults and is expected to continue to grow in the decades to come.Despite the major socio-economic impact...
Adaptation and Demographic Processes in Ukraine from the Mesolithic to the Present
Migration, admixture and natural selection have been shaping human societies and genomes through time. Southern Ukraine, as part of the Eurasian Steppe, has been in the path of sev...
Modelling the transfer of long-term temperature changes in the atmosphere to the vadose zone of karst regions: from glacial cycles to the ongoing global warming
Karst covers approximately 20% of land on Earth, and most caves are in these regions.Temperature records of most caves in the vadose zone (above the phreatic level) have a limited...
CONCERTED ACTION SUPPORTING THE TRANSPOSITION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF DIRECTIVE 2018/2001/EC ON THE PROMOTION OF THE USE OF ENERGY FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES (RECAST)
The Concerted Action supports the implementation of the RES directive.In particular, the Concerted Action facilitates sharing experience and good practice of implementation, findin...
Reducing Inequalities in Vaccine uptake in the European Region - Engaging Underserved communities
Health system barriers in vaccine uptake disproportionately affect specific ethnic, religious or cultural minorities across Europe and are therefore a major contributor to low vacc...
Towards spatially-controlled, bioorthogonal, CuAAC-mediated assembly of targeted oncoprotein degraders
I propose an ambitious multidisciplinary strategy to address the challenge of targeting KRAS-mutated cancers through the combination of a novel bioorthogonal strategy to assemble b...
Artificial Intelligence in Colonoscopy for Cancer Prevention
Removal precancerous polyps (so-called adenomas) during colonoscopy reduces colorectal cancer incidence and mortality.We have recently developed artificial intelligence (AI) system...
Cascade synthesis of ethanol and acetate via microbial fermentation of syngas produced photoelectrochemically by molecular catalysts on BiVO4-perovskite tandem artificial leaf
The photoelectrochemical conversion of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) to energy-rich chemicals and fuels is an attractive strategy towards climate change remediation and a...
Simulation-based design and development of a novel 3D printed ankle-foot orthosis
The research action involves an experienced researcher, Dr Xijin Hua, previously working at ETH Zurich in Switzerland and now working in the Institute for Manufacturing (IfM), Depa...
Resolving the molecular basis underlying convergent evolution of DODA enzymes in the betalain synthesis pathway
As sessile organisms, plants have evolved a diverse array of specialized metabolites to respond to their environments.Specialised metabolites are frequently restricted to particula...
