The PHOENEEX project will address the ever increasing demand for compact energy systems for portable devices. Looking at mobile energy sources for such things as mobile phones, the PHOENEEX project will have a hypothesis that the combination of novel precursor materials, new methods for 3D polymer microfabrication and optimised pyrolysis processes will allow for fabrication…
The INTERACTION project, co-ordinated from The University of Copenhagen, will produce a conceptual model for the out-of-equilibrium system of interacting clouds. Using cutting-edge large-eddy simulations it will determine the interactions in the cloud system and will go beyond the traditional forcing-and-feedback descriptions which portray severe shortcomings. With a 5 year ERC consolidator grant it will…
The MAGMA project will be conducted at The University of Mainz in Germany with an ERC consolidator grant over the next 5 years. The project will develop and employ a new generation of 3D computer models to simulate magma flow, with a full magmatic system in arcs simulated whilst taking realistic rock rheologies and evolving…
The University of Lausanne has been awarded an ERC consolidator grant worth nearly 2 million Euros to co-ordinate the PneumoCaTChER project over the next 5 years. They aim to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying cell-to-cell variability and its importance in virulence and antibiotic resistance having already set up and developed a novel single cell imaging…
The COMANFLO project will be co-ordinated from ETH Zurich with an ERC consolidator grant worth approximately 1.9 million Euros Running for 5 years it will aim to prove global existence of statistical solutions in several space dimensions by using numerical methods to compute statistical quantities of interest and relate them to existing theories for unstable…
The ChronosAntibiotics Project aims to re-sensitise resistant bacteria to antibiotics. It is an example of an ERC consolidator grant awarded to and co-ordinated by The New University of Lisbon over a 5 year period. With antibiotic resistant bacteria set to kill around 300 million people over the next 35 years an alternative strategy to find…
The GENPARENT project will be co-ordinated by Stockholm University with a 5 year consolidator grant from the ERC. It will follow same and mixed sex couples with children to further understand and compare how parental leave and paid for work is divided and what consequences this has on careers. What in the past was known…
The NUCLEARWATERS project is an ERC funded project which will be co-ordinated at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. The history of nuclear energy has always been about nuclear physics and radiochemistry, the NUCLEARWATERS project is going to adopt a new approach by instead analysing the history of water. It will investigate historical water-manipulating technologies and…
