Investigating the impact of soil salinity on physicochemical attributes and molecular structure of rice starch and finding their connection with functional attributes of cooked rice
Rice, the world's second most cultivable crop and staple food for about half of the human population, poses an increasing threat to yield and quality deterioration by abiotic stres...
Promoting Resilience tO Plant diseaSe: Understanding vulnerability and adaptation to Xylella fastidiosa
Plant health is vital for sustainable development. Plant pathogens threaten economies, food security, and rural livelihoods. Existing plant disease research focuses on ecology, epi...
MATIC: Materiality of Imperial Crossings during the age of steam (c. 1850-1950)
The MATIC (Materiality of Imperial Crossings during the age of steam, c. 1850-1950) project aims to deepen our understanding of modern colonial empires by exploring the material cu...
A quantitative study of periodic patterning in growing multicellular tissues: understanding trichome development
The development of living organisms involves tightly coordinated regulatory mechanisms that reliably instruct each cell type, tissue, and organ to perform specific functions. This...
Bridging Disciplines: Unraveling the Morphological Alterations in the Shoot Apical Meristem during Flowering
The life cycle of flowering plants includes a major developmental change known as floral transition, which occurs in response to endogenous signals or environmental variables [1]....
Investigation of host factors regulating virus proliferation in plant stem cells and germline
With this proposal I will address a long-known but still not understood phenomenon in plant virology. Despite extreme replication rates in infected somatic tissues, many plant viru...
Electrical signalling and growth control in zebrafish fin regeneration
The existence of endogenous electric fields in tissues is a fundamental feature for successful morphogenesis and repair processes, conserved across species. In a regeneration setti...
Chain expulsions: Syrian refugee returns from Europe and Lebanon (CHAINS)
“Chain expulsions: Syrian refugee returns from Europe and Lebanon (CHAINS)” is an anthropological study of the spatial and temporal dimensions of a legal concept - chain-refoulemen...
Precision QCD @ LHC using Energy Correlators
This project will have a major impact on the LHC extraction of the top quark mass, which is one of the most important measurements to be performed in the coming years. Currently, t...
Gravitational Waves from Strings with Adaptive Mesh Refinement
Cosmic strings are motivated by simple extensions to the Standard Model of particle physics (BSM), including dark matter axion models (axion cosmology), superstring theory and gran...
Countering News Avoidance with Personalized News Formats
This MSCA research project ‘Countering News Avoidance with Personalized News Formats (NAPNF)’ uses an interdisciplinary approach combining sociology and (media) psychology to ask:...
Formation and evolution of habitable planets with seasons and tides
Project PlaneTS is focused on one of the big questions of science: are we alone in the Universe? At this moment, we are urgently in need of improved models of the planet formation...
Reassessing Obstacles and Opportunities for Marginalised, Middle-Aged Tenants in Europe: Addressing the Challenges of Prolonged House Sharing Through Case Studies in Barcelona and Amsterdam
ROOMMATE investigates the increasingly prevalent phenomenon of prolonged involuntary house sharing within the private rental market among individuals aged 40+, using Amsterdam and...
Migration Waves and their Contributions to Economic and Political Institutions in Origin Countries
The ongoing global migration crisis has emerged as an important development challenge of our time, with millions of individuals crossing borders in search of better economic prospe...
Characterizing dynamics and drivers of resilience across scales in Patagonian rangelands
Increasing aridity due to climate change is a major factor that has dramatically altered the structure of Patagonian drylands, which has resulted in changes in ecosystem structure...
A bio-inspired self-dislodging approach of ice
Novel and efficient anti-icing/de-icing methods should be continuously explored because ice accumulation has dramatic adverse effects on human activities. Traditional thermal de-ic...
Characterization of drought tolerance related mechanistic traits in sorghum related to water transport
Sorghum is a drought tolerant cereal crop, grown extensively by smallholder farmers in West Africa. It is expected to become increasingly important to crop production in the Sahel,...
Development of EXtracellular-based artificial bio-nanoparticles: a novel Targeted vector with high potential in cancer ThERapy
In spite of a growing toolbox of therapies, including classical (radiotherapy, chemotherapy or surgery) and emerging (immunotherapy, precision medicine or hormone therapy) treatmen...
ERA Chair in Algorithmic Game Theory in Socioeconomics
The AGATE project aims at intensifying relevant cutting-edge research and innovation in computer science and its intersectoral applications in Czechia and ERA by establishing, unde...
2D Semiconductor Ferroelectric based Switchable Optoelectronics
The world is foreseeing future electronics in demand of miniaturization, quantum efficiency, and low power consumption with the emergence of novel two-dimensional (2D) semiconducto...
