The life cycles of parasitic worms - from macro-evolutionary patterns to the genetics of adaptation

Benesh, Daniel, Dr. (Molecular Parasitology)

Duration of Project: 05/2019 - 04/2022

Many parasites have complex life cycles in which they infect multiple hosts in succession before reproducing. These life cycles are perplexing, because they seem risky. As the number of consecutive hosts in a life cycle increases, so does the risk of ...

Duration of Project: 12/2016 - 09/2021

Fröbisch, Nadia, Prof. Dr. (Development and Evolution)

Duration of Project: 01/2019 - 12/2020

An understanding of the mechanisms underlying the regenerative programs of limb/fin and tail regeneration in vertebrates are for obvious reasons of great interest and a major research focus of the fields of molecular biology and regenerative medicine ...

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 ...

Adaptive distributed collective decision making of bio-inspired robotic swarms (EXC 2002 SCIoI P 27)

Romanczuk, Pawel, Dr. (Junior Research Groups)

Duration of Project: 08/2020 - 07/2023

The project investigates collective decision making in spatially distributed systems inspired by the behavior of biological collectives. Here, we are particularly interested in the ability of agents to change their social decision behavior and their ...
