NEXUS 1492. New World Encounters in a Globalising World (NEXUS1492)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
NEXUS1492 investigates the impacts of colonial encounters in the Caribbean, the nexus of the first interactions between the New and the Old World. This Synergy Programme intends to rewrite a crucial and neglected chapter in global history initiated by European colonisation by focussing on transformations to indigenous, Amerindian cultures and societies. NEXUS1492 will address intercultural Amerind ...

Evolved Replication Systems for Epigenetics (EvoEPIGEN)
Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,
Cells have a broad functional and morphological diversity due to differential gene expression. Research in epigenetics combines the study of inheritable, phenotypical changes in the gene expression pattern of a specific cell type that are not caused by a transformed nucleotide sequence of the genetic code itself. Epigenetic marks are represented by a variety of molecular mechanisms including DNA m ...

Visual Analytics for Sense-making in CRiminal Intelligence analysis (VALCRI)
Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2018,
"The purpose of Project VALCRI is to create a Visual Analytics-based sense-making capability for criminal intelligence analysis by developing and integrating a number of technologies into a coherent working environment for the analyst we call the Reasoning Workspace. Conceptually, the Reasoning Workspace comprises three areas: (i) a Data Space which will enable an analyst to see what data and them ...

Transnationality at Large: The Transnational Dimension of Hispanic Culture in the 20th and 21st Centuries (TRANSIT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
"Transnationality is a paradigm that currently impacts heavily on the Humanities. Surprisingly, Hispanic culture has not yet been of primary concern to transnational studies, even though, covering a very wide geo-cultural area , the case for its inclusion as a case study is undeniable. The research centres collaborating in this application share a clear interest in transnationality, and specialize ...

Building a European NanoPhononics Community (EUPHONON)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
The aim of this project is to amalgamate the existing and future activities on phonon science and technology in Europe to establish a strong community in this emerging research field. The impact of EUPHONON will extend from academia to ICT-related industry by providing means for thermal management, optimisation of data handling and, in longer term, new methods for material characterisation and new ...

Ultrafast All-Optical Magnetization Reversal for Magnetic Recording and Laser-Controlled Spintronics (UltraMagnetron)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,
The aim of the proposed research is to develop “opto-nano-magnetism” as a novel approach for future magnetic recording and information processing technology at the junction of coherent nonlinear optics, nanophotonics and magnetism. In particular, we are aiming to investigate effects of light on magnetic order at the nanoscale, to obtain highly efficient and ultrafast (10-12 seconds and faster) opt ...
