Boundary value problems for nonlinear integrable equations (BOPNIE)

Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2021,

The purpose of this project is to develop new methods for solving boundary value problems (BVPs) for nonlinear integrable partial differential equations (PDEs). Integrable PDEs can be analyzed by means of the Inverse Scattering Transform, whose introduction was one of the most important developments in the theory of nonlinear PDEs in the 20th century. Until the 1990s the inverse scattering methodo ...

Long-term molecular nanoscale imaging of neuronal function (MoNaLISA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2015, End date: Mar 31, 2020,

Synaptic function is difficult to analyze in living neurons using conventional optics, since the synaptic organelles and protein clusters are small and tightly spaced. The solution to this problem can come from the field of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, or nanoscopy. However, the current approaches to nanoscopy are still far from reaching this goal. Single molecule-based approaches (in ...
