2ndUpChance: A second chance for Upcycling of Microplastics
Microplastics (MPs) are of growing concern to the public because of their potential toxicity and bioaccumulation in living organisms.Given that a large share of MPs pollution is we...
A molecular-taxonomic reappraisal of the common but much overlooked basidiomycete truffle genus Hymenogaster
The poorly understood fungal genus Hymenogaster (Agaricales, Basidiomycota) comprises mycorrhizal basidiomycetes that form subterranean truffle-like fruiting bodies in calcareous s...
MuSkeldiagnosis – Dynamic assessment of musculoskeletal diseases
Microwaves for medical sensing and imaging is a new and rapidly expanding technique.This project aims to create the basic scientific knowledge for the development of effective micr...
Estimation of microcirculation in atherosclerotic plaques using ultrasound
Early identification and treatment of patients with atherosclerotic plaques prone to rupture before the occurrence of thrombosis or embolization is one of the most important clinic...
Reactive intermediates in dicationic and higher charge states
Short-lived atomic and molecular reactive intermediates in different states of charge and excitation are key species in environments like the Earth’s and other planetary atmosphere...
Functional inequalities and nonlocal equations
One part of this project concerns functional inequalities in Sobolev spaces. These problems have a long history and arise in a variety of applications. We intend to develop methods...
A longitudinal study about professional self-efficacy, emotional challenges and moral stress in Teacher and Medical Education
Working in school and healthcare includes high psychological, cognitive and emotional demands on professionals.There is currently a lack of knowledge about how students during teac...
Do relational skills in psychology students increase during their education?
The psychology profession requires different kinds of competencies. In addition to theoretical knowledge, a psychologist is supposed to handle complicated relational situations.The...
Exploring high-dimensional loss landscapes: Asymptotics for learning algorithms and interacting particle systems arising in data science
Within the mathematical foundation of data science, understanding generalisation properties of deep learning is one of the most important outstanding challenges.A related challenge...
Spot-on Biomolecular NMR with Deep Learning
We will revise methodology of biomolecular NMR to meet new challenges and opportunities of the post AlphaFold2 integrative life-science studies.We develop a task-oriented approach...
Photo-assisted atomic layer deposition in real time
The project is concerned with the operando study of photo-assisted atomic layer deposition (photo-ALD) and corresponding thermal ALD processes.ALD is an important thin film growth...
The neural basis of goal directed behavior in insects
To purposefully orient in space, an animal has to compare its body orientation with its current goal and initiate a turn if the two angles do not match.In insects, this fundamental...
Entanglement in quantum communication
Quantum information science and technology exploits the physics of quantum systems for the purpose of information technologies.A major promise of the field is quantum communication...
Developing bed particle layer characteristics for the next generation of fluidized bed biomass thermal conversion processes
The proposed project´s overall purpose is to develop more efficient thermochemical biomass conversion processes by improving the performances of fluidized bed biomass combustors an...
The role of the exosome in gene transcription and DNA repair
Eukaryotic genomes produce a large variety of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs).Some ncRNAs are transcribed from bona-fide genes, but others are produced by “pervasive” transcription of exp...
Gasping for Breath: Exploring the consequences of coastal deoxygenation on microbial processes and ecosystem services
Oxygen deficiency (anoxia) is spreading in coastal seas and estuaries as a consequence of anthropogenic eutrophication and global warming.This has strong implications for ecosystem...
The DNA helix in chromosome organization and function
Cellular function requires a multitude of proteins and co-factors that allow chromosomal DNA to be properly transcribed, duplicated, repaired, and segregated.In turn, these process...
Exploring efficiency limits of red GaN micro-LEDs
GaN micro-LEDs are expected to revolutionize display technology offering applications in, e.g., virtual reality displays and mobile phones.Compared to currently used liquid crystal...
Adult phenology meets offspring thermal performance: are they linked?
Reproductive timing (phenology) and thermal performance are crucial traits for modulating organismal responses to climate change.In seasonal environments, these traits are inherent...
Transient astronomy in the Vera Rubin Era
I am an observational astronomer searching for new transients in the night sky.With our wide-field camera and a combination of robotic telescopes and machine-learning data analysis...
