Black Hole Stability
The discovery of black holes, first as explicit solutions of Einstein equations of general relativity, and later as possible explanations of astrophysical phenomena, has revolution...
Re-thinking Psychological Acculturation: From Explicit to Implicit Cultural Affiliations
The topic of psychological acculturation i.e., changes in psychological and behavioural patterns due to sustained contact with another culture is both timely and relevant: 29 pct....
The Division of Labor in Production Networks
The division of labor - breaking down work into tasks so that workers can specialize in a subset of tasks - is believed by many economists to be key to economic progress, by provid...
Biocultural roots of diversity and inequality in Mexico: 500 years of mestizo stories
Transatlantic contact during the 1400s ignited a series of socio-economic, political, demographic and biocultural changes that irreversibly transformed the course of history in the...
No time for cosmology: Decoding dynamics from static cosmological correlations
The beginnings of the universe are encoded in the statistical properties of primordial perturbations imprinted at the hot Big Bang. Our understanding of primordial cosmology comes...
Unravelling and predicting degradation of canvas paintings: a multiscale and multiphysics framework
Predicting the degradation of canvas paintings is not only one of the grand challenges in the field of art conservation but also a major scientific problem.Canvas paintings experie...
CO2 Mineralisation: Conversion of Waste to New Building Materials
The goal of MIN CO2 is to test the innovation and commercialisation potential of an idea for: i) increasing sustainability, ii) decreasing atmospheric CO2 and iii) producing a valu...
Remote controlling biological systems by sonopharmacology and sonogenetics
To date, light has been employed as a widespread trigger to achieve control over the activity of drugs and protein function establishing the fields of photopharmacology and optogen...
High Resolution Laser Spectroscopy of Atomic Hydrogen and Deuterium
Discrepancies between theory and experiments have been fueling the development of physics.Today, Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) is the most accurate theory and served as a blueprint...
SelF-powerIng electroNics – the Key to Sustainable future
Scientific and technological achievements are often accompanied with pollution of the planet. Even electronics, believed clean, produces waste counting in trillions of batteries.We...
Open Superior Efficient Solar Atmosphere Model Extension
The goal is to develop a time evolving model for the entire solar atmosphere, including the chromosphere and transition region, based on a multi-fluid description.At present, model...
Medieval Placebo Effect: Hope and Belief in Healthcare in Christian Southern Europe 1100-1500
This project sets out to recover how hope and expectation for cure, belief, and trust configured late medieval medicine and the healing encounter. The therapeutic power of these se...
A general approach for the design of covalent protein proximity inducers
Chemical biology has made remarkable strides over recent decades, producing potent and selective inhibitors for many proteins, including essential drug targets.Despite these achiev...
Mercury in the solar wind: adaptive kinetic model for space weather at solar system's innermost planet
We develop a new type of a global plasma simulation model with adaptive charged particle kinetic physics for the Mercury-solar wind interaction.Mercury’s solar wind interaction, or...
Advanced Numerics for Uncertainty and Bayesian Inference in Science
Scientific knowledge enters computers through data on the one side, and laws of nature – implicit equations like differential equations and symmetries – on the other. They both pro...
Large-scale conservation of perishable foodstuffs in the Low Countries, 1600-1800
In the early modern period, large-scale food conservation practices such as fermenting, smoking, and pickling were crucial for globalizing trade and increasing food security, and t...
A nanobody imaging tool to detect protein crystals and predict therapeutic response in asthmatics
Asthma is characterized by airway obstruction, causing difficulty in breathing. The major cause of therapy resistant obstruction is mucus plug buildup in 60% of severe asthmatics.M...
Early Earth, Mars and Venus as Exoplanets (EASE)
The era of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has opened a new chapter in exoplanetary research. We cannot understand exoplanets without looking back at the cradle of life as we...
Empower citizeNs to join Forces with public authORities in proteCting the Environment
Assuring environmental compliance requires a strong network of stakeholders, from citizens and researchers to governments and environmental organisations.Through creative toolkits...
Making Sense of Communities of Arms
This project is an ethnographic study of the everyday deployment of firearms and their societal impact.It examines and compares the various ways firearms produce communities, and f...
