"Information-processing by individual political actors. The determinants of exposure, attention and action in a comparative perspective" (INFOPOL)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

"A well-functioning democracy implies that political actors are aware of the real problems in society, their potential solutions, and the associated preferences of citizens. This requires information about the real world. This project examines how individual political actors process information coming out of society. Its goal is to lay bare the patterns whereby exposure to certain types of informa ...

Immunogenetics of Severe Bacterial Disease Susceptibility and Vaccine Responses in Humans (IMMUNOGENE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2017,

Defining the genetic basis of differential susceptibility to infectious diseases is of importance for understanding the evolution of human genetic diversity, for identifying critical molecular pathways in disease resistance, and for the design of novel intervention strategies such as more effective vaccines.I propose to sequence the entire coding regions of all human genes in large numbers of case ...

Parallel computing based on designed networks explored by self-propelled, biological agents (ABACUS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

Many technologically and societally important mathematical problems are essentially intractable for traditional, serial computers. Therefore, a significant need exists for parallel computing approaches that would be able to solve such problems faster than current serial computers. This project will develop and benchmark a novel paradigm for future parallel computing approaches, based on biologica ...

Nanocomposite materials for photocatalytic degradation of pollutants (LIMPID)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Limpid aims at generating new knowledge on photocatalytic materials and processes in order to develop novel depollution treatments with enhanced efficiency and applicability. The main goal of LIMPID is to develop materials and technologies based on the synergic combination of different types of nanoparticles (NPs) into a polymer host to generate innovative nanocomposites which can be actively appl ...
