Analysis and Separation of Complex signals: Exploiting the Time-frequency structure – ASCETE
ASCETE is a methodological project whose objective is to focus on the development of adpative methods to decompose complex non stationary signals in a small number of physically significant components. The emphasis will be put on reassignment approaches, and we will seek to circumvent some of their
Tropical Atlantic Deoxygenation: gateway dynamics, feedback mechanisms and ecosystem impacts
The “Make Our Planet Great Again Project” “Tropical Atlantic Deoxygenation: gateway dynamics, feedback mechanisms and ecosystem impacts (TAD) started in 2019 to establish a sustained observation and modelling system for plankton and particle dynamics in the Eastern Tropical Atlantic. A lot of effort
Shaping inequalities or building social bonds? Ceremonial economy under and after socialism in Central Asia (1960s-2020s) – CEREMONIAC
Life-cycle ceremonies and festive sociability spending; a growing phenomenon among Central Asian populations (in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan) has taken ostentatious dimensions between the end of the 1960s and this day. These practices have taken on such proportion that they dro
New Antibiotics Tackling mUlti-Resistance by acting on Alternative bacteriaL tARgets in Synergy with mEmbrane-disruptiNg AntimicrobiaL peptides. – NATURAL-ARSENAL
Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern, estimated to cause 300 million premature deaths and a loss of 100 trillion dollars by 2050. Bacteria are acquiring the capacity to escape the action of a large spectrum of antibiotics due to horizontal gene transfer (HGT). While most genes inactivate beta-
DEEP Learning For Large Deep Imaging Programs – DEEPDIP
Understanding the origin of the accelerated expansion of the Universe, the formation of the large-scale structure and the galaxies embedded in it are the quests of modern cosmology. Huge observational and theoretical efforts are being made to address these fundamental questions. In this proposal, we
Moduli spaces of Differentials: Flat surfaces and interactions – MoDiff
Dynamics of billiards in rational polygons can be efficiently understood by studying geometrical and dynamical properties of moduli spaces of related differentials (or flat surfaces), using a renormalization process. Quantitative dynamical properties (such as the number of closed orbits, or the diff
Analysis of SNARE-mediated regulation of plasma cell biology – PC-SEC
Antibodies (Ab) are essential for efficient and long-term protection against infection. They are produced by plasma cells (PCs) corresponding to the last stage of B cell differentiation and play an essential part in host protection and tissue homeostasis directly by neutralizing pathogens but also b
Learning causal effects between phenome and exposome from large amounts of heterogeneous data in human complex diseases – GePhEx
The last ten years have witnessed considerable expansion into various omics data that has resulted in an explosion of publicly available heterogeneous datasets. Recent genotyping and profiling technologies enable the scientific community to investigate disease-related genomic alterations in human di
Training Adapted Personalised Affective Social Skills with Cultural Virtual Agents – TAPAS
OBJECTIVE 1. The proposal aims to develop tools and methods for Social Skill Training (SST) to help overcome social stress in everyday situations involving (joint) presentation at school and at work. Our aim is to develop a platform allowing participants to role play social interactions. The targete
primary Antibody ImmunoDeficiencies: genetics and pathophysiological mechanism – AID
This project intends to study the molecular, genetic and pathophysiological mechanisms leading to primary antibody deficiencies (PADs). A detailed understanding of the precise molecular pathophysiological mechanism is essential to develop novel knowledge-based treatment strategies. Genetic delineati
