government intervention and the macroeconomy microevidence on the transmission of government procurement

depending on the country and year governments spend between 10 and 20 of gdp on public procurementi collect data on millions of public procurement contracts awarded in many countries i have detailed information about the contracts value awarding institution etc and merge this information with firmlevel balance sheet and firmtofirm transaction data this allows me to study the transmission mechanisms from government procurement to the aggregate economy the aim is to investigate the particular economic channels through which outcomes in public procurement permeate to the rest of the economy and to identify the sources of inefficiencies in the processmy proposal is divided into three blocks that aim to answer crucial questions about the role that public procurement plays in determining macroeconomic outcomes1 how costly is governments homebias ie governments buy disproportionally and unpredictably more from local firms for aggregate productivity and welfare in europe2 what are the effects of corruption in procurement on firms dynamics3 what are the factors determining the aggregate price at which governments buy goods and serviceswhat are the implications for consumers welfarethe novelty of the data and the complex interactions between public procurement outcomes economic distortions and firms decisions make this research proposal ambitious and place it at the research frontier
superwettabilityenhanced electrocatalysis

in recent years worldwide efforts to tackle climate change have resulted in immense momentum towards renewable energy research despite renewables ie photovoltaic achieving cost parity vs fossil fuels 3244mwh vs 44152mwh implementation remains limited one persistent challenge is intermittency ie inconsistent energy supply by seasonaldaily cycles amongst promising energy storage methods ie liion batteries hydrostatic etc electrocatalyticallygenerated hydrocarbons pose numerous advantages they are 1 nonpolluting 2 benign aqueous compositions 3 earthabundant electrode materials and 4 carbonneutrality carbonnegative via carbon dioxide reduction however there is still limited control over the gaseous pathways in gasinvolving electrocatalysis this limitation negatively influences both reactant and product flux affecting conversion efficiency from a physical perspective electrocatalysis is a multiphase process where liquid immersed electrodes solid interact with reactantsproducts gas integration of concepts in wettability is thus beneficial surface superaerophilicity refers to its strong affinity super for airgases aerophilicity with superaerophilicity microscopic gaslayers on surfaces ie plastrons provide highly efficient reactantproduct gas transport pathways in this project i will investigate design principles for superwettabilityenhanced electrocatalysis superelectro the primary goal is to decouple wettability and electrocatalytic activity achievements in electrocatalyticenhancements ie current density conversion efficiency etc will thus be universal the choice of electrode catalyst becomes independent from wettability as plastrons provide alternative product and reactant pathways electrocatalysis is vital towards a sustainable adoption of renewable energy technologies the success of this work impacts the future of our energy industries and greenfriendly societies
tough colloidal biomaterials for regeneration of loadbearing tissues

musculoskeletal conditions impact the patients mobility and dexterity this greatly affects the patients ability to work and their overall quality of life this burden could be lifted by tissue engineering and regenerative medicine solutions which utilizes a combination of biomaterials and cells to restore functional tissues current biomaterials do not provide the strength needed for use in loadbearing applications as those seen in musculoskeletal conditions bigelink will develop a novel biomaterial formulation that mimics the mechanical properties of the native scaffolding of loadbearing tissues it will do this by the design of a colloidal bigel a twocomponent nanoparticle system with interpenetrating phases that is both tough and soft the developed biomaterial will be tested for its biocompatibility according to world standards to enable further clinical trials the biomaterial generated in this project will thereby provide a novel platform for tissue regeneration of loadbearing tissues
late ottoman palestinians social and cultural dynamics in an eastern mediterranean society during the age of empire 18801920

in the eastern mediterranean the four decades between 1880 and 1920 were a time of imperialism globalisation and ottoman state building but also of profound social differentiation fuelled by an unprecedented degree of human mobility and migration therefore in this period we find the roots of many social formations that have remained relevant until the present my focus is on the individual and collective practices for coping with various challenges and on censustaking as a social process it will open up new perspectives on social and cultural dynamics in late ottoman palestine in a historical context defined by european imperialism ottoman state building and globalisation the main research question is which social strategies did late ottoman palestinians employ across ethnic religious and class divides to confront challenges on the individual and collective levels these include fostering social advancement of ones household or coping with economic stress my hypothesis is that an accumulation of individual actions led to the constant emergence and reemergence of social formationsusing the census process and its data i will establish yardsticks that will make it possible to compare social practices across the region and beyond and thus contribute to ongoing efforts to write a global social and cultural history and it will develop a theoretical framework and methodological standards that will be useful for similar research projects specifically the project aims to set new standards for how to realise the vision of an hgis for the entire ottoman empire enabling comparison with other sources it may also offer intriguing new perspectives for the study of colonialism notably under the british mandate
rereading european cultural heritage in latin american women writers travel literature of the early 20th century contrasting testimonies to build inclusive historical discourses

cultural heritage is a sociocultural discursive construction embedded in power relationships which tends towards the selective preservation of historical memory and the support of a particular reading of history however history is multivocal and to achieve egalitarian societies where identity diversity is respected it is necessary to deconstruct the hegemonic historical discourse including different narratives from the perspective of otherness rewind proposes to study how historical discourses around european cultural heritage ech have been constructed using travel literature written by latin american women authors from the early 20th century as such noneuropean women committed to feminist movements and who claimed miscegenation become historical agents and cultural mediators that counteract a eurocentric and patriarchal historical discourse thus it is not about adding womens testimony but about rereading historical narratives about heritage in order to protect and transfer a cultural legacy that reflects the memories and subjectivities of a diverse society rewind is based on foucaults theories of discursive formations since it analyses the elements of the ech that authors highlight in their travels and descriptions from both the physical and the emotional point of view firstly using digital humanities approaches based on geographic information systems the project will identify and locate ech items secondly rewind will apply sentiment analysis techniques to recognise the impressions that ech provokes in women travellers and finally the information offered by travel guides and official documentation of cultural institutions will be contrasted with the data of travel literature applying semantic technologies and the decolonial gender theory so through this innovative methodology rewind will give voice to a silenced testimony recovering part of the collective memory and offering new ways of interacting with the past in the present
the tipping point from genome instability to cancer

cancer starts years to decades before diagnosis yet early stages of tumor development are poorly understood in particular the precancer landscape of chromosome instability cin is understudied due to the scarcity of precursor lesions and methods to analyze cin in single cells the research presented here will address how the instability rate of the genome followed by selection determines whether a cindriven tumor arises i hypothesize that the onset of cin is the tipping point that governs the fate of a precancer clone using spatially aware and singlecell multiome methods that we developed we will dissect essential factors that lead to malignancy via cin including extrachromosome circular dnas we will analyze two solid tissues at opposite ends of the cell turnover spectrum which deeply diverge in regeneration capacity clonality and constraints namely the brain and the gutaim 1 will assess the instability rate of the human genome using the postmortem brain as a model tissue cin patterns vary greatly in frequency and type across brain tumors we will compare the background incidence of fundamental types of cin in normal cells to cin signatures after selection has acted in diagnosed tumors of the same lineagesaim 2 will dissect cin in space and time from the cell of origin to identify what discriminates nascent clones that may cause cancer from those that do not timecourses in mouse models will reveal how cin contributes to selective advantages and how nascent cinpositive clones escape elimination by immune cellsaim 3 leverages human precursor lesions to probe the role of cin as a central gatekeeper between tumor initiation and growth using the gut as a longitudinal in vivo system to directly capture the tipping point to cancer unstable genome will provide the first systematic quantification of the early development of chromosomally unstable lesions and reveal the principles that govern cindriven clone expansion in vivo

transients illuminating the fates of the most massive stars

two recent revolutions in timedomain astronomy are transforming our understanding of stellar evolution in the most massive regime the detections of gravitational waves gw from binary black holes and the discovery of new and rare classes of supernovae from widefield transient surveys with this a longstanding prediction from stellar evolution theory is gaining new relevance that stars with he cores above 35 solar masses will encounter an instability due to pairproduction resulting in either a series of pulsations and corresponding mass ejections or the complete disruption of the core in a pairinstability supernova gw detectors can search for the resulting gap in the black hole mass distribution while supernova surveys can constrain the occurrence of the pairinstability phenomenon in the lowredshift universe by searching for the associated transients with the upgrade in survey volume in the 2020s by the lsst project we have an unprecedented opportunity in finding and studying such rare transients but first need to solve the substantial needleinhaystack problem of identifying the relevant candidates from a stream of several million alerts per night transpire will address this by drawing on both the analysis and properties of the current stateoftheart supernova samples being collected as well as theoretical expectations of pulsational pairinstability supernovae to build the necessary identification software and deploy it on the lsst alert streams to select the best candidates for followup and further analysis as a result we will uncover the relation between pairinstability phenomena and extreme transients such as superluminous supernovae identify which interacting transients have massloss histories consistent with pulsational pairinstability massloss and either find the first bonafide pairinstability supernova in the low redshift universe or place the strongest constraints to date on their occurrence
