Protein-water-cofactor interactions in biological water oxidation - a paradigm for base metal activation
Photosynthesis by cyanobacteria, algae and plants is the basis for life on Earth as it converts solar into chemical energy and produces the oxygen we breadth.These organisms perfor...
Dispersal: an engine of evolutionary diversification
While human-mediated long-distance dispersal (LDD) is a threat to biodiversity, owing to the invasive success of many alien species, there is evidence to show that historical LDD h...
Revealing population traits of locally adapted filamentous cyanobacteria – using multiomics
The dense blooms of filamentous cyanobacteria formed during summer in the Baltic Sea are dominated by three different taxa, and they all use individual growth strategies resulting...
Microbial degradation of tree bark – how, and by whom?
The bark of trees has a very important protective role, partly physical, but also chemical as it is the first line of defense against environmental stress and attacks by various pa...
Hybrid Polymer-2D Composites for Next-generation Semiconductors
Semiconductors are transforming human civilization with advancements ranging from solar cells and image sensors to rapidly expanding artificial intelligence infrastructures.However...
Storm track intensity and midlatitude cloud feedback
Cloud-radiative feedbacks remain a major stumbling block in understanding and quantifying climate sensitivity. Recent assessments show that the tropics and midlatitudes contribute...
Number Theory Related to Quantum Chaos and Dynamics
The goal is to study number theoretical questions related to mathematical physics and dynamical systems, and prove or disprove conjectures by the physics community.Quantum Chaos is...
Soil organic matter dynamics in boreal forests – the role of mycorrhizal mycelia and microbial communities
Chemical and biological mechanisms underpinning long-term soil carbon storage in boreal forests are poorly known, but a high proportion of stable soil organic matter (SOM) consists...
The role of emulsifiers in turbulent drop breakup – bridging fluid mechanics, chemical engineering, and colloid science to provide fundamental insight
Turbulent emulsification is of large industrial relevance.Moreover, there is a substantial fundamental scientific interest in how turbulent stresses deform viscous interfaces in th...
Quenching decoherence sources of solid-state quantum systems by interaction with quantum liquids.
Quantum entanglement is the key resource of quantum mechanics; its use is going to open a way to powerful computing and advanced sensing.Yet, an uncontrolled entanglement with para...
Prebiotic organomineralization: Shedding light on the earliest evidence for life on Earth
This proposal investigates the time window before life (prebiotic), challenging the biotic origin of the earliest macroscopic evidence of life on Earth.Through inventive laboratory...
Geometric inequalities for asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes
The research proposed in this application focuses on the study of mass of asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes, with main emphasis on proving certain geometric inequalities for...
Powers of linear forms and Lefschetz properties
Understanding syzygies and other relations in polynomial rings is important in many areas of mathematics.Powers of linear forms are in a sense the most special of all polynomials,...
Effective closed-loop chemical recycling for a circular materials economy
We aim to develop effective closed-loop chemical recycling methodologies, for which the thermodynamics and/or kinetics of entropy-driven ring-opening polymerization is our toolbox...
Organised Prostate Cancer Testing (OPT) in Sweden: an evaluation from a health economic perspective
Research problem and specific questionsThe Swedish confederation of regional cancer centres initiated the Organised Prostate cancer Testing (OPT) program before the latest recommen...
Autistic flourishing and societal services
Autism brings unique strengths and challenges, impacting various life areas and both mental and physical health. Research often emphasizes risks and negative outcomes from a non-au...
Library teacher: a vocational role in the intersection of two feminized welfare professions
Research problem and specific questions: Today, school libraries are mainly staffed by teachers without librarian training, so-called library teachers.The aim of this project is to...
Co-designing integrated residential aged care: development and evaluation of a new working method for healthcare and social services
Research problem and specific questionsIntegrated healthcare and social services hold promise to improve older persons’ health and well-being, but there is a lack of working method...
Visions of care: how visualizations shape collaborations and valuations in home care services
Research problem and specific questionsAs Sweden’s population is ageing, home care services are becoming increasingly vital for care provision.Home care services rely on several pr...
PharmaBat: Investigating Bat-Mediated Transfer of Aquatic Pharmaceuticals to Terrestrial Ecosystems and Implications for Bat Health
Pharmaceutical pollution poses a growing threat to our environment, with traces of medicines detected in nearly all parts of the world.These drugs, due to their widespread use and...
