Elucidating the Function in Plant Iron Homeostasis and Transport of the VTL Family of Vacuolar Membrane Proteins

Buckhout, Thomas John, Prof. Ph.D. (Applied Botany)

Duration of Project: 07/2016 - 09/2018

In this project we will pursue the investigation of the functions of VTL proteins in iron homeostasis and to establish whether the VTL transporters are suitable tools for increasing the iron storage capacity in plants. The following goals will be pur ...

Dynamic Response of Glaciers in the Qilian Shan to Climate Change (Dyn-Q)

Schneider, Christoph, Prof. Dr. (Climate Geography)

Duration of Project: 04/2018 - 03/2021

Knowledge on glacier and melt water variability is crucial for sustainable water supply in Central Asia since they function as water towers for millions of people. The Qilian Shan, are located in the most Northeastern part of the Tibetan Plateau, on ...

Disruptive Approaches to Atom-Light Interfaces

Rauschenbeutel, Arno, Prof. Dr. (Basics of Optics and Photonics)

Duration of Project: 10/2020 - 09/2023

Diamond for infrared optoelectronics: time-resolved spectroscopy of excited acceptor states in diamond

Hübers, Heinz-Wilhelm, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. (Optical Systems)

Duration of Project: 11/2017 - 10/2020

The project is devoted to the experimental investigation of excited states in boron-doped diamond crystals. The lifetimes of the excited states will be determined by mid-infrared pump-probe spectroscopy and time-resolving Fourier transform infrared a ...

DFG-NSF-Materials World Network:: Spin phenomena in quasi-1D systems of narrow-gap semiconducters

Fischer, Saskia, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. (New Materials)

Duration of Project: 01/2011 - 10/2014

In den letzten zehn Jahren ist sehr intensiv Grundlagenforschung zu Spin-Effekten in Halbleitern und Halbleiternanostrukturen vorangetrieben worden, motiviert durch die Möglichkeit eine neue Ära in der Elektronik ("Spinelektronik") und Informationste ...

DFG FG 797/2: "Analysis and computation of microstructure in finite plasticity" - Participating project P1-1: "Numerical algorithms for the simulation of finite plasticity with microstructures"

Carstensen, Carsten, Prof. (Numerical Handling of Differential Equations)

Duration of Project: 10/2010 - 06/2016

The occurrence of microstructures in solid mechanics and, in particular, in finite plasticity can be attributed to a loss of the convexity of the underlying energy potentials. While the material deforms macroscopically, structures in the form of shea ...

DFG FG 797/1: "Analysis and computation of microstructure in finite plasticity" - Participating project P1-1: "Numerical algorithms for the simulation of finite plasticity with microstructures"

Carstensen, Carsten, Prof. (Research Groups (DFG))

Duration of Project: 06/2007 - 12/2012

Participating project in "Analysis and computation of microstructure in finite plasticity". The occurrence of microstructures in solid mechanics can be attributed to a loss of the convexity characteristics of the underlying energy potentials. Specif ...

COUPLED. Operationalising telecouplings for solving sustainability challenges related to land use

Nielsen, Jonas Ostergaard, Prof. Dr. (Cultural and Social Geography)

Duration of Project: 01/2018 - 12/2021

COUPLED is a four-year, European Training Network granted by the EC in Horizon 2020. We put the research approach of TELECOUPLING into action for solving sustainability challenges for land use. How to understand processes and actors that influence la ...

Connecting: COproductioN with NaturE for City Transitioning, INnovation and Governance

Duration of Project: 06/2017 - 05/2022

Connecting Nature is a five-year project funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 Innovation Action Programme. The aim by project end is to position Europe as a global leader in the innovation and implementation of nature-based solutions. The ...

Compressed Sensing in Ptychography and Transmission Electron Microscopy

Van den Broek, Wouter, (Experimental Physics / Structural Research and Electron Microscopy)

Duration of Project: 07/2017 - 03/2021

This project uses compressed sensing to improve object retrieval from ptychographic data sets consisting out of HRTEM images and diffraction patterns, and to speed up data recording and thus decrease electron dose and specimen damage. More specifical ...
