Establishing and sustaining N2 fixing symbioses between diatoms and cyanobacteria
N2 fixing planktonic partnerships are important symbiosis to study because they are widespread, contribute significantly to both new and primary production, and are little studied....
Rethinking access and utilization of reproductive healthcare, and domestic violence services among women with disabilities in Uganda (RESPOND)
Background: Majority of women with disabilities (WWDs) live in low-income countries faced with extreme disadvantages in access and utilization of life-saving reproductive health an...
Liproprotein structure-function and disease development: from atherosclerosis to covid-19
Lipoproteins are nanoparticles delivering fat across the body.Lipoprotein structure and composition is complex, with several classes and subclasses that not only differ greatly in...
Disciplinary literacy in primary teacher education
This project aims to (a) develop an in-depth understanding of disciplinary literacy in the university disciplines of Swedish, English and Mathematics in teacher education, grades 4...
STEAM in early childhood education: An opportunity to traverse gender norms connected to Arts and STEM?
This project concerns STEAM education, that is, STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) combined with Arts (dance, drama, music, visual arts).The purpose is to explore...
Softer and thinner cochlear implants
Cochlear implants has provided hearing and a better life for hundreds of thousands and can be further improved.The purpose of this research project is to reduce trauma and improve...
A new tool in spectral geometry
Spectral theory of partial differential equations is a classical topic in mathematical physics and has more than a century of history.Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of PDEs appear,...
Evolution of turbulence in the expanding solar wind
The heliosphere represents the only plasma system accessible for direct measurements.It is therefore crucial to perform experimental studies that allow understanding the fundamenta...
Empowering Agriculturalists through Structured Experimentation
Agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa faces a problem of low adoption of modern inputs, technologies, and techniques. This has two important consequences. First, yields are low, contri...
Energy conservation in biological membranes
The respiratory chain of mitochondria and aerobic bacteria is composed of membrane-bound enzymes that transfer electrons from e.g. NADH to O2, which is reduced to H2O.Sequential el...
FISH LINKS - Scrutinizing the impact of tourism-driven fish consumption on reef fish communities: a socio-environmental study in tropical seascapes
Coral reefs are among the most diverse ecosystems in the world and provide food and income for approximately one-quarter of small-scale fishers worldwide and contribute to liveliho...
An evolutionary approach to understanding the ultimate effects of chemical pollutants for aquatic animals
Many environmental contaminants are not overtly lethal and instead cause behavioural changes that can affect animal fitness.Such contaminants have the potential to impose novel sel...
The Genetics and Trade-Offs of Iridescent Structural Colour
Structural colour is one of the three main forms of coloration in animals, often manifested as iridescence. Iridescence is a phenomenon that produces a vivid metallic colouring dep...
NITROPRIME: Quantifying the impact of plant-soil interactions on plant nutrition and carbon sequestration in a warming Arctic
The Arctic is warming at rates twice the global average, increasing CO2 production by degradation of thawed soil organic matter, but also plant CO2 uptake. The balance between thes...
Making Explainable AI Understandable with Contextual Importance and Utility
The requirement for explainability in AI systems is as old as AI itself and lack of explainability has always been acknowledged as being a main hurdle for the success of AI in gene...
Studying the Impact of Lightning on Atmospheric Chemistry: focus on the Tropics (SPARkC)
Until now, all the reactions taking place in Earth’s atmosphere were assumed to result, directly or indirectly, from sunlight.These reactions determine the ability of the atmospher...
Experimental and theoretical evaluation of carbon nanomaterials with hierarchical pore structure and large surface area for use as sustainable electrodes
Advanced theoretical and experimental methods are used to develop nanostructured carbon with hierarchical structure and large surface area from biomass and expand our basic knowled...
Making unpaid care and domestic work count: Frames, strategies and effects of new global partnerships
Despite its significance for unequal gender relations, unpaid care and domestic work (UCDW) has been conspicuously neglected in gender and development policy, perpetually focusing...
Connecting climate goals with local realities of Nepal: Analyzing changing energy poverty and access patterns in the era of climate change
The high magnitude earthquake in 2015 aggravated the situation of energy poverty and access in Nepal as around 30% of the infrastructure was damaged.The purpose of the project is t...
