Flexible inorganic-organic hybrid superlattices for harvesting low-grade heat
For a sustainable society, there is a need for new materials for harvesting low-grade heat to power wearable electronics and “internet of things” devices.Inorganic-organic hybrid s...
Nuclear fusion simulations for discovering new elements and detailed description of fission for applications
One of the major questions in science is “Where does the chart of nuclei end?”. The primary method of producing heavier elements has been through fusion of two nuclei.The fusion pr...
Freezing dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 replication-transcription machinery using time-resolved cryo-EM
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused tremendous effects on global health the last two years, and there is a high risk of new coronavirus outb...
Making Peace with Pests: From Conflict to Conviviality with Mosquitos Across Southeast Asia
This project ethnographically investigates the vexed socio-political relations between humans and mosquitos.As is particularly the case in Southeast Asia, mosquitos are responsible...
Emerging pests and pathogens as a novel lens for unravelling social-ecological cascades
Emerging pests and pathogens (EPPs) are an increasingly disruptive force to human society that can cause large social and ecological changes far beyond their initial site of emerge...
The Galactic centre: a reflection of galaxy formation?
This projects aim to observe stars at the centre of the Milky Way in its Nuclear Star Cluster.The Galactic centre lies at the nexus of most bigger events that has happened in our G...
Finansiering av bioteknikföretag för att möta utmaningar liknande Covid
Purpose and goal:The global pandemic clearly showed that a sustainable society requires that biotech innovations can reach the market quickly. The purpose of the project is to stud...
Coordination funding Smart Built Environment 2022-2024
Climate is one of the defining issues of our time and we are facing major societal changes.At the same time as the existing society is to be adapted to climate change, we must make...
What do we deserve in a meritocracy?
The purpose of the project is to investigate the tenability of meritocracy – which holds that jobs and economic benefits should be distributed according to desert. Critics view the...
The emotional citizen: Quality of life-analysis and the formation of emotional democracy in 1970s Sweden
Measurements of experienced “quality of life” have become an important part of policy making in contemporary democracies. Yet, when quality of life-analysis was first introduced in...
Finding and identifying point defects in 2D materials for quantum technologies
This proposal aims to find new point defects suitable for quantum technologies.Point defects in wide band gap semiconductors are excellent for various quantum technologies such as...
Molecular architecture underlying super-sensitivity of dopamine D1 receptor expressing neurons in striatum
Neuronal plasticity and transcriptional activity in a sparse ensemble of neurons are central to learning and memory formation.The recent observations that dopamine (DA) D1-like rec...
A retrosplenial cortex perspective on circuit dysfunction during Alzheimer’s disease
Hallmarks of Alzheimer´s disease (AD) include extracellular aggregates of amyloid-beta that lead to cell death, loss of memory, and eventually death.A variety of therapies can redu...
Analysis of place field generation in the retrosplenial cortex
Place cells in the hippocampus are position-tuned cells that underlie spatial memory and navigation. How place cells generate spatial tuning remains unclear.Recent work points towa...
Pathways of development around the Spanish-speaking world: Cross-varietal diachronic variation and change in 19th-21st century Spanish morpho-syntax
During processes of language variation and change, it remains undetermined to what extent different dialects of a language coincide or diverge in how linguistic change progresses.T...
From exhaled droplet to infection - the microphysics of respiratory aerosols
For every breath we take, aerosol droplets are created in our respiratory system and exhaled from our mouth. However, little is known about the complex drying process taking place...
Characterization of neurogenesis by multidimensional proteomics to develop pure neuronal progenitor cells
Stem cell therapies were suggested to treat incurable neurodegenerative disorders and several clinical trials and/or preclinical studies have been conducted and are ongoing for Par...
Weeding in the coral garden - towards an increased understanding of detrimental algal blooms on coral reefs
Stressors on coral reefs are intensifying due to increased anthropogenic disturbances. Climate change favors macroalgae over corals, leading to the overtaking of ecologically impor...
Self-nonself recognition systems as drivers of speciation in fungi
A universal feature of cellular organisms is the capacity to recognize self from nonself, which ensures correct identification of mating partners, protection from parasites, and st...
Strategies to achieve healthy and sustainable diets at scale: developing a novel approach to predicting changes in dietary-, health- and environmental outcomes
Substantial shifts in contemporary diets are needed to halt the growing burden of chronic diseases and the rapidly accelerating climate crisis.Achieving this will require strong ac...
