In this project, we want to understand why people in slums and settlements in Kenya and Malawi cook using solid fuel like wood, charcoal, coal and animal dung, given that it is bad...
Competition and facilitation during learning: Searching for domain general principles.
In any domain of daily life and cognition, humans solve tasks and make decisions by using information that comes from multiple, different sources. It is quite obvious that we learn...
Optoelectronic properties of hybrid metal halide perovskites: from nanoscale to devices
Anthropogenic climate change is currently one of the biggest challenges facing our society. In order to mitigate the detrimental effects of burning fossil fuels and releasing CO2 i...
Mantle plumes, xenoliths and melt inclusions - heterogeneous deep mantle sources or shallow melt-rock interaction?
In this study we will use the Canary Islands archipelago as a natural laboratory to examine the effects on melt composition as a passive continental margin is approached, transitio...
Quake4D - building physics-based, geologically-rich models for investigating earthquake interaction and seismic hazard
Earthquakes pose one of the greatest natural threats to vast populations. In the last century, earthquakes have caused 2.3 million deaths (1 million in the last 30-years alone) and...
