Ecological genetics of sexual conflict
Sexually antagonistic coevolution (SAC) is a potent force in evolution.Though we have learned much about its role in producing phenotypic diversity, we know little about the role o...
Förbättrad förståelse av odiagnosticerade infektionssjukdomar hos barn i Uganda
Several resource-limited tropical and sub-tropical African countries are faced with low capability to investigate outbreaks where the aetiological agent has not been identified.In...
Microbubbles – hidden gateways for greenhouse gas emissions from inland waters?
Many inland waters emit the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane at globally significant rates.Recently, the surprising and impactful observation has been made in many lakes...
Multiscale design of textile reinforced concrete structures
Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) offers the possibility to build corrosion resistant, slender, lightweight, modular, and freeform structures with relatively small environmental im...
Understanding understanding - Supporting understanding in the classroom through the understanding of curricula structures
A prerequisite for learning is that instructions and other activities take place in a language you understand.This may seem self-evident, but fact remains that a majority of learne...
Diophantine equations at the interface of analysis and geometry
The purpose of the proposed project is to connect the fields of arithmetic geometry and harmonic analysis via the connections both fields have with counting problems in number theo...
North Greenland Glacier-Ocean Interactions: advancing knowledge of marine ice margins to better constrain future sea-level rise
While continued ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet during the 21st century now is proposed to be a certainty (IPCC report 2022, Working Group 2), quantifications of ice loss and...
FFI Accelerate Startup Partnership 2023
Purpose and goal:The main goal for Accelerate Startup Partnership is to establish and implement an efficient model for identifying, creating and coordinating partnerships between s...
Making Politics Safer: Gendered Violence and Electoral Temporalities in Africa
Violence against women is increasingly coming into focus in the global gender debate. This follows wide and in-depth studies on women’s representation in political institutions.By...
Feeling the heat: how metabolic physiology drives vulnerability of insects to ongoing winter warming
Energy metabolism during winter resting stages is usually heavily suppressed, and a major determinant of fitness in animals living in seasonal environments.Our insight into the phy...
Tunable optical resonators and metamaterials through Casimir self-assembly
Self-assembly plays a vital role in a great variety of phenomena in nature, ranging from atomic and molecular systems to living matter, climate, and even gravitational galaxy forma...
Interaction of chiral phonons and spin
State-of-the-art experiments with THz laser pulses allow for the excitation of chiral phonons.In contradiction to theory, they uncover the significant sample magnetization due to c...
Higher structures in higher-dimensional homological algebra
Homological algebra is a classical subject in mathematics that utilises algebraic methods to investigate ´obstructions´ of various kinds.This proposal aims to investigate the highe...
MAGHEAT: Understanding energy deposition in the solar chromosphere
The mechanisms that heat the solar chromosphere and corona, and that drive the solar dynamo, remain some of the foremost questions in solar and stellar physics. Here, we focus on t...
Evolutionary ecology of avian migration
Movement is fundamental to life in most organisms, achieved thanks to specialized behavioural and physiological adaptations included in the endogenous migration program for individ...
Supernova induced processing of interstellar dust
The origin of cosmic dust grains is a hotly debated topic.For the local Universe, there is general consensus that dust production is dominated by low mass stars, and transported in...
Are divergent mosquito odorant receptors conserved behavioural regulators?
The olfactory system of mosquitoes is under strong selective pressure to use the same set of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and likely neural pathways, as signals for finding a...
Morfologibaserad rigorös geometrihantering för randeffektsdominerade konstruktionsoptimeringsproblem
This project primarily investigates questions regarding geometric properties, in particular, boundary identification and treatment in the context of computational design optimizati...
Taxation and Income Inequality in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Historical Comparative Analysis
The project identifies conditions that promote or hinder more effective use of tax revenue for reducing income inequality in sub-Saharan using a historical-comparative approach.We...
Understanding the synthesis of earth-abundant transition metal phosphides with in-situ TEM
Production of green hydrogen requires the use of efficient, cost-effective and scalable catalyst materials.Transition metal phosphides (TMPs) have emerged as a very promising earth...
