considering the growing transport demand and dependence on oil collective and immediate actions must be taken to abate emissions and mitigate their environmental and health impacts very fine particles emissions and the formation of secondary aerosols through atmospheric processing are believed to be the pollutant with the greatest public health impact even if there is a major knowledge gap concerning their atmospheric behaviour eg mechanismcontribution to smog episodesaerosols is a 36months timely ambitious and interdisciplinary project with aim to define robust and transparent measurement and modelling methodologies to quantify the currently disregarded volatilesemivolatile vsv primary and secondary emissions and their associated risks furthermore technological and legislative monitoringabating mechanisms will be proposed to control these emissions in order to help improve air quality and public health this will be achieved byquantifying vsv emissions formation abatement and dynamics within the vehicle system under realdrivingemissions rde testing conditions on roads and in labs utilising innovative instrumentations and methodologiescharacterising secondary aerosol formation and atmospheric evolution mechanisms employing advanced instrumentations eg for particles as small as 1nm methodologies and modelling to provide scientific evidence of the precursors rolecategorising taxonomising and prioritising assisted by artificial intelligence primary and secondary emissions compounds based on their health impact by employing in vitrovivo testing environmentalsocial lifecycleassessment and riskadvocacy information will be provided to the stakeholders and legislationpolicy makers and proposals will be made for improving the standardsregulations and consequently the air quality the support of stakeholders and partners will accelerate the transition to a cleaner and climateneutral societyeconomy
visualizing hebrew knowledge shape and text in scientific and philosophical manuscripts

between the 10th and 12th centuries ce the major players of the mediterranean included the republic of venice norman sicily fatimid egypt and north africa the iberian peninsula and byzantium each of these centres was inhabited by a mixed population of jews muslims and christians who maintained networks of trading partners exchanging not only goods but also ideas texts and as we will see art from the 12th century onward jewish scholars mainly in spain provence and italy began translating scientific works from other languages hebrew became dominant as a scientific language jews were aware of the scientific developments and the translators gave different reasons justifying their motivations such as the contempt displayed by foreign peoples for jewish culture in general or the conscious desire to embrace the knowledge and development of the surrounding culture in this field while researchers have examined which and how scientific texts were translated from latin and arabic into hebrew they have paid little attention to whether and how jews adopted the visual elements in these texts such visual components in hebrew manuscripts of science and philosophy mostly in the form of diagrams combining text and shape stand at the heart of this project different diagrams that develop ideas in these fields will be analyzed for the first time using methods from the disciplines of art history and history of science with additional attention to manuscript studies and cultural history emphasizing the interdisciplinary methods required in this field although the diagrams are found in hebrew manuscripts they are part of a wider context of latin and arabic manuscripts the main aim of this integrative study of the transmission of text and image is to contribute to our understanding of the transfer and sharing of knowledge between different cultures

people who arent really there nonpersons as a field of scholarly inquiry

recent years have seen previously largely unnoticed groupsfrontline health workers workers along global supply chains victims of sexual abuse people who subscribe to outlandish conspiracy theoriessuddenly appearing in the limelight this project takes a step back and documents the processes through which some people come to be unnoticed in the first place notreallythere aims to transform sociologist erving goffmans wellknown but undertheorized concept of nonperson into a fresh field of interdisciplinary inquiry the project will interrogate being notreallythere as a representational effect an interactional achievement a particular subject position and an affordance a feature of life that facilitates some actions feelings thoughts and identities and that encumbers or blocks others it is informed by foucauldianinspired theories about how discursive arrangements distribute and influence perception and attention but it will complicate those theories and bridge a gap in the literature by conducting detailed case studies comparing people who frequently are rendered notreallythere against their will or desire such as migrants or refugees and others such as simultaneous interpreters or artists who intentionally hide their identity who reap professional rewards or gain greater freedoms by consciously doing their best to be notreallythere the project examines the axis of perceptibilityimperceptibility and will document how it is established and contested by whom how it matters and why it explores the concrete ways in which being notreallythere can be a strategy of power and a tactic of resistance but it also will document where and how such perspectives fall short and require revision examining willed and unwilled dimensions of being notreallythere in the same framework will lay the foundations for a new field of inquiry that synthesizes research on agnotology ignorance visuality silencing and social interaction
crop wild relatives utilisation and conservation for sustainable agriculture

crop wild relatives cwrs ie the cousins of domesticated crops represent a natural source of genetic variation the cousin consortium recognizes the value of cwrs for agriculture but also the challenges of their utilisation through the cousin readiness levels crls we will demonstrate a roadmap for the use of cwrs in breeding and farming we will work with five flagship crops wheat barley pea lettuce and brassicas with these exemplary crops we demonstrate how current challenges of stakeholders from farm to fork can be overcome using cwrs in formalised and participatory breeding the cousin consortium has unique cwrrelated expertise data and breeding material that allows us to cover the translational pathway from the identification of wild plants to a marketready crop in a fiveyear project for each flagship crop we identify priority traits of cwrs design selection toolboxes and apply them in current breeding programmes in order to fulfil current and emerging stakeholders demands effective characterisation protocols are designed and will guide conservation of the naturally occurring functional and genetic trait diversity across europe characterisation will occur in and exsitu through highthroughput phenotyping chemotyping and genotyping of priority traits incl plantassociated microbiomes conservation measures cover insitu reserves and exsitu collections with the widest possible trait diversity for easy access of priority trait information and corresponding cwr accessions a userfriendly data portal will be developed all collected data will be offered for integration into national and international repositories through onfarm pilots and actual breeding sites realised across the european pedoclimatic regions the value of cwrs will be demonstrated to stakeholders with direct applications for breeders and farmers to provide climate changeresilient crops as a vital means towards sustainable production systems
responsive classifiers against hate speech in lowresource settings

hate speech is a worldwide phenomenon that is increasingly pervading online spaces creating an unsafe environment for users while tech companies address this problem by serverside filtering using machine learning models trained on large datasets these automatic methods cannot be applied to most languages due to lack of available training databased on recent results of the pis erc project on multilingual representation models in lowresource settings respond2hate aims at developing a pilot browser extension that allows users to locally remove hateful content from their social media feeds themselves without having to rely on the support of tech companiessince hate speech is highly dependent on cultural context responsive classifiers are needed that adapt to the individual environment commercial efforts focus on largescale generalpurpose models which are often burdened with representation and bias problems and therefore cope poorly with swiftly changing targets or information shift between regional contexts in contrast we seek to develop lightweight adaptive models that require only a small dataset for initial finetuning by continuously enhancing model capabilities over timethis is achieved by applying stateoftheart natural language processing nlp and deep learning techniques for pretrained language models like lowresource transfer of hate speech representations from highresource languages and fewshot learning based on limited user feedback we have already successfully applied these methods in lowresource multilingual settings and will now validate their use for hate speech filteringby making hate speech detection and reduction available in lowresource countries with little representation in current training datasets which are currently not served well by governments industry and ngos respond2hate will empower users to selfcontrol their exposure to hate speech fostering a healthier and safer online environment

developing interaction design knowledge and materials where technology touches the body

intimate touch will reconceptualise how technologies use touch to interact with us bringing intimacy as a lens on touch inspires us to think about the felt experience of touch the diversity of places on the body where we will be touched by technology and the sense that touch can be transformative of our view of ourselves this project will develop the theory methods and technologies of intimate touch it will bring together research in humancomputer interaction on intimate technologies with new interaction techniques alongside psychological theories on intimacy and neuroscience perspectives on touch technologies that touch us will constitute a new paradigm of interactive devices most strongly exemplified by care robots designing technologies for intimate touch will be foundational in creating dignified and acceptable interactions between humans and technologiesthe first objective is to develop a model of intimate technology no researcher has done this before this model will be developed through a largescale interview study alongside insitu longterm studies of our own demonstrators of intimate touch by identifying which interactions lead to intimacy this project will have empirically identified a new class of technology intimate technology autonomous systems will touch many areas of our bodies yet there has been no serious study of touch experiences other than on the hands and shoulders my second objective will counter this by innovating on a design approach that centres the felt experience of touch from technology and by creating a dataset that describes peoples experience of touch from technology across the body my final objective is to develop two demonstrators of intimate touch this risky challenge will evidence how touch with technology transforms us practically this will provide a roadmap to good touch from technology empirically this will lay the groundwork for a reconceptualization of our relationship with technology

developmental and evolutionary origins of the language of thought

how do human infants and nonhuman animals think fodor famously framed the idea that human minds operate in a languagelike format a language of thought lot where mental representations compose in the manner of formal language symbols allowing us to build arbitrarily complex mental structures out of a small set of initial primitive operations through all areas of cognitive science there has been rich evidence supporting the idea that a lot could explain many facets of human cognition do infants and animals also have a lot while the existence of a lot in the absence of language has been questioned for centuries by philosophers psychologists and linguists alike little direct behavioral evidence has been offered for it and these investigations have mainly been confined to close relatives of humans ie great apes the overarching goal of this project is to adopt a broad comparative approach to study the developmental and evolutionary origins of the lot our approach is at the intersection of linguistics and psychology we identify the primitive operations of thought from formal semantic principles and operations realized in language and empirically test them in human adults and infants baboons papio papio and honeybees apis mellifera we study the computational architecture of the lot of infants and animals starting from their ability to perform simple computations using only a few symbols to the more complex abilities to use functional operators such as logical connectives quantifiers and modals and to apply pragmatic operations the outcome of this project will be an unprecedented cartography of possible lot primitives and of where they are found in human ontogeny and animal phylogeny
