Increased use of property-related electric and cargo bike pools near residential buildings
Purpose and goal: ** Denna text är maskinöversatt **The aim is to investigate which functions can be used to create a long-term high level of use of property-linked electric and ca...
Ceramics with enhanced high-temperature toughness
The performance of ceramics at temperatures of relevance (>1000 K) to applications is limited by the inherent tendency to crack (brittleness) of these materials and/or by te...
Formation and controlled degradation of mesoporous silica particles and films
Mesoporous silica particles and films can be used in e.g. catalysis and drug delivery.Optimization of the materials’ pore characteristics and stability is crucial for its performan...
High-fidelity modeling and resilience optimization of microgrids
Microgrid is the smart renewable energy system for sustainable power supply of critical systems (e.g., buildings, hospital, transport, communication, data center, defence). The vul...
Epigenetic regulation by the Polycomb-Trithorax system: leaving the mark on histones and other proteins
Designated master-regulatory genes control the development and homeostasis of a multicellular organism. Importantly, only a subset of these genes is active in any given cell type....
Fiber-for-life: Advanced fiber optics for cancer theranostics
It is well known that early diagnosis dramatically increases survival rates of cancers. The merging of advanced diagnostics with therapeutics (theranostics) is poised to reshape fu...
Cyanobacteria - the missing link in vibriosis spread
Climate change is implicated in the spread of vibriosis, a group of diseases caused by Vibrio bacteria.Due to rising temperatures, the climate suitability for Vibrio has increased...
Invasive earthworms in northern Scandinavia; effects on soil microorganisms and carbon dynamics
Though earthworms are widely present in European forests, the northern regions of Scandinavia are still largely lacking burrowing earthworm species.The expansion of such species in...
Integrated urban planning for sustainable mobility, housing and urban form in East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda)
This proposal focuses on ´integrated urban planning for sustainable communities´ in East Africa targeting urban contexts in Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda.It seeks mutually beneficial...
Linking Swedish, Nepalese and Indonesian capacities to inform the design of effective, efficient and equitable Social Network Interventions for health and poverty reduction: The ‘SNI-LINKS’ Network
This proposal is situated at the interdisciplinary crossroads of health and development research, with specific focus on social network interventions for health and poverty reducti...
Shedding light on biological hydrogen catalysis
Bio- and photocatalysis have both seen impressive development during the last decade.Also their combination has seen great advance, and driving redox enzymes using artificial photo...
Colloidal Aminated Porous liquids for emission free and energy efficient CO2 capture (CAPCO2)
Ambitious goals of reduced and negative emissions of CO2 has put Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) back on the agenda. However, with the large energy use for the regeneration of the...
Advanced Computer Simulations for Material and Biomolecular Science
The overall aim of this 4-years project is to address to several challenges in the modern molecular modeling having primary application area in biomolecular and nanomaterials scien...
Consequences of selection for cognitive ability
How does cognitive ability evolve and what are the organismal consequences of evolutionary shifts in cognition?Despite centuries of research to understand the causes and consequenc...
Photonic Quantum Circuits
The aim of this proposal is to develop a novel system for quantum simulation.Our implementation exploits quantum states of light generated by single semiconductor quantum dots embe...
Basic olfactory terms: towards a universal semantic space of odors
In order to determine whether there is a “universal” olfactory-semantic space, this project investigates semantic differences and similarities between vocabularies used to describe...
A novel focus on the diatom phycospere and the ocean´s biological carbon pump
Diatoms contribute approximately 20% to the Earth’s primary production.Diatom biomass is projected to decrease in the global ocean due to warming and decreased nutrient supply from...
Development of the time-dependent GW method
The aim of the proposed project is to develop a theoretical and computational scheme for studying the dynamics and non-equilibrium properties of quantum many-particles systems and...
Sustainable synthesis enabled by transient photoinitiators
Most of the artificial molecules that are key components of our electronic devices, materials and medicines are polar compounds whose synthesis is still problematic today.This ofte...
Experimental development of plasma reforming of CO2 and CH4
Plasma conversion of thermodynamically difficult reactions is achieved by exposing gas mixtures to energetic electrons to initiate a chain of chemical reactions.Reprocessing CO2 an...
