a history of european christian antiantisemitism 19452020

this project sets out to study the history of the romancatholic and the protestant repudiation of antisemitism which i call christian antiantisemitism in western europe between 1945 and 2020 through its expression in multiple ecclesial declarations theological works liturgical events educational projects and professional appointments i argue that antiantisemitism is a core component of contemporary european christianity as such it is inherently tied to the reconfiguration of western christianity in late 20th and early 21st century in the context of the liberal secular society to the creation of orthodoxies and heresies and to processes of secularization decolonization and the globalization of christianityto grasp the role of christian antiantisemitism within these processes the project will explore three of its central aspects first the project will analyze the penetration of antiantisemitism into the center of christian european identity by examining its key theological concepts and historical development second the project will explore christian antiantisemitism as it was consolidated and negotiated in interaction with jewish interlocutors and the dialectic combination between severe disagreements between jews and christians on the nature ofantisemitism and the role of christians in facilitating and perpetuating it and between fruitful antiantisemitic collaborations that were also recruited for the cultivation of europes postwar liberal ethos third the project will study intrachristian debates on antisemitism in ecumenical and global christian settings and investigate the place of antiantisemitism within tensions between western christianity and world christianity around racism and colonialismbased on its findings christosemitism will suggest a new theoretical paradigm through which to grasp christianitys role in contemporary europe as well as that of religious phenomena in the history of secular societies more broadly
understanding diagnosing and early intervention in the myeloid malignancy continuum

as humans age hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells hspcs accumulate preleukemic mutations plms forming preleukemic hspcs prelhspcs and leading to clonal hematopoiesis ch while the link between ch and myeloid malignancies is established predicting progression remains elusive the shlush lab aims to enhance myeloid malignancies outcomes through early diagnosis and treatment still it faces three gaps 1 lacking advanced tools for diagnosisrisk stratification beyond mutations 2 insufficient understanding of plms functional consequences and 3 absence of targeted therapies against plmsto address these challenges our proposed specific aims are as followsaim 1 develop a novel diagnostic tool for myeloid leukemia using singlecell rna sequencing scrnaseq of peripheral blood hspcs from 1300 patients and replace bone marrow bm analysis in the future such a cohort will allow the discovery of novel mechanisms in leukemia and improved diagnostics aim 2 create an in vitro assay to explore molecular and functional consequences of human plms at the singlecell level considering selfrenewal and changing microenvironments aim 3 identify drugs targeting human preleukemic hspcs through a highthroughput drug screen of human prelhspcs this novel approach aims to pave the way for targeted early interventionsto make these goals feasible the shlush lab made three major steps forward 1 created the first reference map of peripheral blood pb hspcs from 150 healthy individuals 2 developed a dynamics bone marrow in a dish allowing the study of human prelhspcs 3 developed the apoptosis score for detecting apoptosis in a small number of prelhspcs

enhanced and costeffective biosecurity in livestock production

given the multitude of interactions between animals humans and production systems a thorough understanding of infection transmission routes is key in designing good biosecurity measures transmission can occur via direct contact but also through a range of indirect routes such as clothing footwear contaminated vehicles air etc although all these routes have been described their relative importance and therefore the importance of the linked biosecurity measures are still poorly understood consequently many of the current biosecurity guidelines are based on empirical evidence making it difficult to rank measures by importancethe overarching goal of biosecure is to improve the capacity for key actors and decisionmakers in livestock farming to understand prioritise and implement evidencebased costeffective and sustainable biosecurity management systems in current and future terrestrial livestock production chains for pigs poultry cattle and small ruminants this will be achieved bysetting up and facilitating a multi actor stakeholder forum to support interactive knowledge exchange bottomup behavioural change and uptake of the key exploitable resultscollecting existing biosecurity intelligence throughout the livestock production chain and creating biosecurity risk maps at an eu level for improving future risk analysisquantifying the impact of biosecurity practices through quantitative risk assessment and mathematical models as tools to quantify the probability of introduction and spread of pathogens at farm and sector levelimproving and extending biosecurity scoring tools for accurate measuring the level of biosecurity and providing adapted and science based advicesevaluation and improvement of biosecurity measures through experiments and field studies assessing the socioeconomic impact of biosecurity measures both at farm level and beyond

international development involves ideologies and activities ostensibly directed towards the improvement of wellbeing of populations in the global south mainstream development interventions emphasize forwardlooking ideas of progress and advocate for novelty in so doing however the sector is often myopic as evidenced by countless unintended consequences that stretch beyond interventions official life cycle whether deemed success or failure such interventions leave behind a long trail of tangible and intangible tracesproject afdevlives explores how development interventions representational and material remains are experienced employed and reappropriated by local actors over time and how such active immanence of the past affects peoples lifeworlds it weaves together three temporal gazes prospective developments blueprints retrospective sediments of the past shorthanded as interventions afterlives and presenttime lived experience consciously decentering formal development discourse and temporalities the project develops and applies a phenomenological framework oriented around embodiment and intertwinement of people objects and spaceusing an interdisciplinary approach centered on social anthropology research will be conducted in kenya tanzania and mozambique neighbouring eastern african countries that are among the highest recipients of development aid and whose past and present balance continuities and ruptures the project will unfold via an iterative process involving four complementary work packages movement image storytelling and synthesis working across work packages countries and case studies the project will pursue three categories of objectives conceptual methodological toolkit empirical based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork and practical aimed at the development sector local heirs of interventions and the public at large the project will result in a robust set of outputs
dissecting mechanisms of epigenetic reprogramming driving metastatic transition using cancer patientderived organoids

cancer development is a convoluted biological process that reshapes cellular identity genetic mutations are crucial in driving such process yet fail to fully explain metastatic transitiona critical step in cancer evolution for this reason reprogramming driven by nonmutational epigenetic changes is increasingly recognized as a potential mechanism by which cancer cells acquire metastatic properties despite the genetic heterogeneity specific transcriptional programs are activated to promote the acquisition of such properties therefore understanding the role of changes at the chromatin level in facilitating metastatic transitions becomes crucialto address this i will use patientderived organoids pdos generated from primary colon cancer and various metastatic sites pdos are an optimal model system available in the hosting laboratory providing a platform for investigation and subsequent functional validation the projects first goal is to profile changes in histone modifications and in the enhancer interactome in primary and metastasis pdos this will identify chromatin states transitions and cisregulatory elements with a key relevance in metastatic progression and maintenance aim 1 transcription factors tfs with potential regulatory roles in these processes will be identified by integrating chromatin accessibility data and performing footprinting analysis aim 2 functional validation of candidate tfs will be conducted using crispr perturbations combined with singlecell multiomic readout and invitro assays to assess pdos fitness and invasiveness potential aim 3 altogether in this project we will employ a comprehensive approach to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of prometastatic gene regulatory networks providing insights into the epigenetic drivers of metastatic transitions
