Advanced Particle Phenomenology in the LHC era (LHCPHENONET)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is the largest and most complex single experiment ever performed in the history of mankind. The physics program of the LHC is motivated by fundamental questions about the laws of nature, such as explaining the origin of mass, understanding the early universe and the structure of space and time, unravelling the nature of dark matter and providing glimpses of ...

Development of the circuits in the locust brain for the early detection and avoidance of looming objects (neural development)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Nov 29, 2012,
Looming detection is crucial for animals to efficiently respond to approaching stimuli. Extensive research has been done to characterise and understand the neural circuits underlying such capacity. The locust has been established as a preferred model because it has a pair of large and uniquely identified visual neurons, the lobula giant movement detector (LGMD) and the postsynaptic descending cont ...
