Parametric fiber-based Mid-IR Swept-Source (MIRSS)
Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2015,
"The middle infrared (mid-IR) wavelength region between 2-5um is of great interest due to a wide variety of applications such as spectroscopy, or free-space communications and demand for high quality mid-IR lasers has significantly increased over the last decades. In conjunction, the ability to rapidly sweep wavelength has fueled many major developments such as real-time fiber sensor examination a ...

High Impact Vector Signaling for Energy and Pin Efficient Communication between Electronic Components (HIVESIGN)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
Efficient communication between integrated circuits within an electronic component is a major concern for designers of electronic systems. The 'Interconnect,' as it is called in the industry, is considered to be a major bottleneck in the design of high performance electronic systems, both in terms of speed, and in terms of its contribution to the total energy consumption of such systems. Be it on ...

The Role of Lymphatic Vessels in Dendritic Cell Homing and Maturation (DC-LYMPH)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2013,
"Dendritic cell (DC) activation and homing from the periphery to lymph nodes is a critical first event in the immune response. It involves upregulation of the chemokine receptor CCR7 and chemoinvasion towards lymphatic vessels. Despite its critical importance in adaptive immunity, the mechanisms of DC migration towards and entry into lymphatics are still poorly understood; this severely limits new ...

Error-correcting codes and their applications in Science and Engineering (ECC SCIENG)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
Error correcting codes are combinatorial objects which have traditionally been used to enhance the transmission of data on unreliable media. They have experienced a phenomenal growth since their birth some fifty years ago. Today, everyday tasks such as listening to a CD, accessing the hard disk of an electronic device, talking on a wireless phone, or downloading files from the Internet are impossi ...

Ultra-high-Q Physics: Towards single molecules and phonons (SiMP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The proposed research program builds on the previously developed ultra-high-Q monolithic micro-resonators by the applicant during his dissertation at the “California Institute of Technology”. These micro-resonators offer unprecedented confinement of light in micro-scale volumes for extended amounts of time and have opened many lab-on-chip applications ranging from nonlinear optics, quantum optics ...

European Network on Directed Evolution of Functional Proteins (ENEFP)
Start date: Oct 15, 2008, End date: Oct 14, 2012,
"This project intends to use directed evolution as tool to reproduce Nature's remarkable ability to generate molecular machines - in particular enzymes – that perform at levels near perfection. By harnessing the forces of Darwinian evolution in the laboratory we want to (i) screen large and diverse genome libraries for protein with new and useful functions, (ii) optimize existing proteins for appl ...
