[PROJECT] VIRAL_IDP - Revealing the role of intrinsically disordered proteins in transcription and replication of measles and sendai paramyxoviruses using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
ID: 273786
Start date: 2011-08-01, End date: 2013-07-31
"Over the last decade it has become increasingly clear that a large fraction (up to 40%) of the proteins encoded by the human genome are disordered. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) remain functional despite a lack of a well-defined structure, such that the classical ...

[PROJECT] VegFenol - Inhibition of VEGF signalling by dietary polyphenols as a plausible mechanism for their health benefits
ID: 274885
Start date: 2011-05-01, End date: 2013-04-30
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the single biggest cause of death worldwide and are particularly prevalent in westernised populations including Europe. Epidemiological evidence indicates that consumption of flavonoid-rich diets is associated with reduced CVD risk. In additi...

[PROJECT] SPITE - The adaptive nature of spiteful behaviour
ID: 273819
Start date: 2011-09-01, End date: 2013-08-31
"Spite is one of four fundamental categories of social evolution (alongside selfishness, altruism and mutualism). It is costly to both actor and recipient, and puzzles evolutionary biologists. Historically, conditions favouring spite were thought to be narrow, which resulted ...

[PROJECT] REPTRA - Mechanisms coordinating chromosome replication with transcription
ID: 274093
Start date: 2012-03-01, End date: 2014-02-28
"Genome stability during chromosome replication can be challenged by drugs affecting fork progression and intra-S DNA damage. While the mechanisms preserving the integrity of replicating chromosomes in response to replication stress induced by exogenous genotoxic events have ...

[PROJECT] EARLYUNIVERSE - Early Universe Modelling and Confrontation with Cosmological Data
ID: 274326
Start date: 2011-10-01, End date: 2013-09-30
In this exploratory project we will study the non-trivial interrelations between fundamental theory, phenomenology and observation in cosmology, in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the physics of the early universe, and to identify new promising directions for futur...

[PROJECT] Cratonic basins - Cratonic basins: an archive of lithosphere-mantle interaction
ID: 272669
Start date: 2011-04-01, End date: 2013-03-31
Fundamental to our understanding of the Earth is the theory of plate tectonics. This predicts that throughout the Earth’s history the continents have converged to form large continental assemblies and subsequently broken apart and dispersed. It is hypothesised that continents...

[PROJECT] B10NonAbBlcksETH - Representation Theory of Blocks of Group Algebras with Non-abelian Defect Groups
ID: 272259
Start date: 2011-04-01, End date: 2013-03-31
The proposed project is set in pure mathematics in the areas of representation theory of associative algebras and Lie theory. Its goal is to contribute to the structure theory of the blocks of group algebras of symmetric groups with non-abelian defect groups. The main emphasi...

[PROJECT] NFLiquid - Dynamics and Structure in a Network-Forming Liquid
ID: 274575
Start date: 2012-03-26, End date: 2014-03-25
This project will study the interplay between structure and dynamics in soft matter. Soft materials are of great practical importance and are ubiquitously present in our daily environment. We will focus on network-forming liquids (NFLs), which are part of the general class of...
