democracy and citizens political engagement have been longlasting policy goals of the european unions standards and values the european commission has established a new push for democracy as one of its priorities for 20192024 intending to foster democratic governance and civic participation however these objectives are challenging in light of transnational repression and the lack of policy tools for migrant protection in host societies across western democracies the primary recipients of human rights defenders the eu has overlooked the rapid change in more vibrant forms of migrant political activism and how authoritarian governments control their diasporas abroad there is a knowledge gap in understanding transnational repressions gendered effects on receiving countries political environment womenactrepinhost advances global discussions on migrants rights by analysing latin american women activists practices of resistance to transnational authoritarian rule it also discusses how they could be best supported by international organisations and host countries democratic institutions the proposed action aims at enhancing three career objectives acquiring scientific and transferable skills in gender studies and psychosocial research shortterm securing a permanent academic position in the eu midterm and developing an independent career path as a gender consultant in human rights international organisations longterm these objectives will be accomplished through an individually tailored research and career development plan the methodology includes a literature review and fieldwork research based on indepth interviews online nonparticipant observation and focus groups with lac female activists and organisations in the us and spain it also focuses on dissemination strategies to target scholars practitioners and wide audiences with deliverables such as peerreviewed articles conferences podcasts and policy briefs
phytoplankton photosynthesis and physiology under p limitation within a context of diversity

aquatic ecosystems offer a wide range of ecosystem services eg climate regulation carbon sequestration water treatment and fisheries in these ecosystems nitrogen n and phosphorus p cycles have been modified leading to an increase in nutrient concentration and changes in the stoichiometry of the element in marine systems dissolved n and p are on average present in an overall stoichiometry balance called the redfield ratio np16 the skewness of stoichiometry is exacerbated by a general effort of countries to reverse eutrophication by reducing only p using water treatment plants this management solution is leading to a global increase of the np in the freshwater and coastal marine systems amplifying the likelihood of p limitation phytoplankton that supports the entire trophic web follows the redfield ratio and is affected by this unbalanced ratio photosynthesis diversity and physiology of the phytoplankton communities are deeply impacted by these changes thus stressing the need for understanding this arising issue this project aims to evaluate how reverse eutrophication causing high np affects the ecophysiology and productivity of phytoplankton to explore this issue nutrient experiments at an unbalanced nutrient ratio np 90 will be performed with a selection of freshwater and marine species to investigate species on the whole water continuum an increasing diversity single species cocultures natural communities for freshwater only gradient will be used while chemical physiological photosynthetic and diversity parameters will be measured this also includes a temperature variation experiment to study the combined issue of climate change reverse and eutrophication the information delivered by this project will be critical both for the understanding of the response of phytoplankton communities under unbalanced input and for the problem of reverse eutrophication and climate change to improve water management

chemosensation in holothruoids

chemosensation is a critical signalling process for sea cucumbers which relies on the interaction between their chemosensory receptors and various ligands for foraging and reproduction although there is a vast amount of research on the chemistry of secreted specialized metabolites of sea cucumbers and some behavioural data evidencing chemoreception of these metabolites the chemosensory receptors of these organisms have not yet been identified and nothing is known about the physiology behind sea cucumber chemosensation this setback is in large part because the scientific approach behind studying chemosensation requires a vast array of techniques and expertise in ethology chemistry molecular biology and biophysics firstly a behaviour associated with a chemical cue must be quantifiable secondly the precise chemical cue eliciting the behaviour response must be identified and isolated thirdly the chemosensory receptor of this specific cue needs to be identified on a tissue cellular and molecular level and finally the activation of this specific receptor by a specific chemical cue must elicit a measurable response on a molecular cellular tissue and organismal levelthrough this project i will elucidate the physiology of chemical communication between sea cucumber by considering these sequential steps in chemosensation with my previous experience in sea cucumber ethology and chemistry sensholo will enrich my skill base in molecular biology and biophysics so that the mechanisms behind intraspecific chemical communication between sea cucumbers may be determined from both the emitter and receiver perspective from signal to receptor this holistic approach will be groundbreaking in chemosensation and sea cucumber research it will enable future research to address the evolution of chemosensation in marine invertebrates and the chemical ecology of sea cucumbers both in the context of optimizing aquaculture and in their ecological conservation

memory beliefs and economic decisions

this project builds on the psychology of memory to study how selective retrieval affects economic decisions by shaping beliefs and preferences the general approach is one in which a persons past experiences both domain relevant and domain irrelevant determine her core beliefs and preferences but changing cues in the environment ignite selective retrieval of specific pieces of information causing instability in beliefs and preferences in this way selective memory acts as a source of framing effects one project studies belief formation which is based on sampling of information shaped by similarity to cues which include the hypotheses being assessed and irrelevant context and by interference a second project applies this approach to preferences studying choice under risk whereby people selectively retrieve from memory and simulate potential lottery outcomes and intertemporal choice whereby people use memory to simulate future rewards a third project will apply these ideas to the field domains of interest are i survey measurement of how past domain relevant as well as domain irrelevant experiences shape the perception of new risks i socioeconomic identity and its effect on political opinions ii similarity in financial markets beliefs and asset prices iv advertising and v instability of fairness norms
