vortices with massive cores in quantum matter

in quantum matter vortices are topological excitations characterized by quantized circulation of the velocity field they can be found in contexts as diverse as superconductors boseeinstein condensates laser beams and even in the recently detected gravitational waves emitted during the merging of two spinning black holesquantum vortices are often modeled as funnellike holes around which the quantum uid exhibits a swirling ow in this perspective vortex cores are nothing more than empty regions where the superuid density goes to zero and their motion is governed by firstorder differential equations in the last few years this simple view has been challenged and it is now increasingly clear that in many real systems vortex cores are not that empty in these cases the hole in the superuid is lled by particles or excitations which dress the vortices and provide them with an effective inertial massthis feature opens the door to exciting new scenarios where inertial effects compete with the usual intervortex interactions in this way wellestablished results about vortex dynamics bindingunbinding phase transitions and robustness of superuidity are challenged the project vortexons will provide a complete description of the physics disclosed by quantum vortices with massive cores addressing these crucial open issues from both the theoretical and the experimental sides the resulting theory aims to be not only the gold standard in all those phenomena where quantum matter features massive topological excitations but also the necessary foundation for the development of new highperformance superconductors in this perspective our theory will thus possibly be the seed of major breakthroughs having a disruptive impact on society economy and environmental policies such as higherresolution magnetic resonance scanners lowpower microprocessors and highspeed transportation
facial recognition technologies ethoassemblages and alternative futures

facial recognition technologies collect billions of faces that are stored for multiple uses spanning individual identification and tracking to training of deep neural networks the mainstay of modern artificial intelligence ai from tagging a photo on social media or unlocking a computer to controversial applications of facial recognition in public spaces schools workplaces and law enforcement activities facial processing technologies have entered almost every aspect of our lives while expected benefits relate to security and safety critics highlight that these technologies normalize surveillance and erode privacy exacerbate discrimination and contain insurmountable flaws and inaccuracy the faices project asks what matters in facial recognition technologies and why how politics of mattering enact diverse ways of being implicated which forms of citizenship and public engagement are affected how multiple and complex ethical choices emergethis study develops a novel methodology by which the perspectives of social groups that have never been studied together which are jointly but antagonistically implicated in facial recognition technologies are taken into consideration scientists who conduct research on facial recognition professionals working in startups and technology companies members of advocacy groups and activists black communities and artists who incorporate facial recognition in their work the faices project will produce an innovative social theory of the face through the combination of a new conceptual approach ethoassemblages which transgresses the idea of pregiven fixed and dichotomic ethical principles and the generation of original empirical data major outcomes are based on expanding ethics and imagining alternative futures fueling citizenship and public engagement and fostering opportunities for academic thinking to be inspired by activism underrepresented groups and artistic practices

the impact of environmental crimes and human induced disaster on cultural rights of indigenous and afroindigenous peoples

increasingly serious environmental crimes and largescale humaninduced disasters generate harm that impacts local communities for instance in 2015 the fundo dam collapse contaminated 650 kilometres of the doce river with toxic residues affecting the life of 16 million people living in the watershed among them indigenous and afroindigenous peoples have their life and culture impacted this project seeks to understand and conceptualise what indigenous and afroindigenous peoples cultural rights are affected by environmental degradation in brazil and colombia it aims to codevelop with local communities in those countries a toolbox to identify and protect their cultural rights and to claim redress for cultural losses
tackling multiple forms of malnutrition in ethiopia amongst women of reproductive age and children under five

increasing evidence shows that undernutrition and overweightobesity coexist affecting countries households and individuals this phenomenon has been labelled the double burden of malnutrition dbm it has been recognised as a public health problem in subsaharan africa calling for interventions addressing all forms of malnutrition simultaneously despite impressive progress in reducing undernutrition ethiopia still has one of the highest rates of undernutrition globally which coincides with a rising problem of overweightobesity particularly in urban areas nevertheless funding for interventions remains focused on undernutrition shifting policies and programmes to address multiple forms of malnutrition requires a good understanding of the problem the current policyprogramme environment and stakeholders views on the nature of the problem and potential ways of addressing it unfortunately such evidence is scarce therefore the tammie project tackling multiple forms of malnutrition in ethiopia amongst women of reproductive age and children under five will assess the dbm to develop a roadmap for action to tackle multiple forms of malnutrition for this a 4p cycle problem policiesprogrammes people priority will be assessed the exploration of each p will constitute a work package utilising a range of methodologies the dbm is multifaceted and complex as such an interdisciplinary approach is fundamental to tackling it the tammie project is therefore interdisciplinary drawing on insights from different disciplines eg epidemiology nutrition public health policy science and methodologies eg systematic review secondary data analysis of large quantitative datasets social network analysis multicriteria mapping the gender sensitive approach of this project is key as women are agents of change and are central to promoting healthy diets and preventing multiple forms of malnutrition for themselves and their offspring
unravelling chemoresistance mechanisms and improving firstline therapeutic strategies in highgrade serous ovarian carcinoma using multiculture patientderived organoids

to improve the poor clinical outcomes in highgrade serous ovarian carcinoma hgsc we need to understand the cancer celltumour microenvironment tme dynamic interactions upon disease evolution and treatment in my proposed project i will establish a unique tmehgsc patientderived organoid pdo multiculture model system to identify and understand how the tme impacts treatment responses and how treatment resistance can be overcometo generate multiculture pdo preclinical models of hgsc for the first time i will use my own expertise in 3d culture and stromal cell isolation from patientderived material and i will integrate selfgenerated tme units with wellcharacterized hgsc pdos established at the host laboratory i will then use this model to study the chemotherapyinduced changes at the single cell level i will compare the transcriptional states of the treated models to the intervalrecurrent pdos and correlate their in vitro treatment responses to the patient responses i will predict strategies to increase the sensitivity of the cancer cells to the hgsc standard treatment by targeting the tumourtme interactions or the cancer cells themselves without generating a more tumoursupportive tme by using the multiculture pdos in highthroughput drug screens and subsequently integrating the generated data finally i will functionally validate the predicted therapeutic strategies by crispr gene editing and drug treatment of the modelsi expect that my project will generate profound knowledge on the chemoresistance mechanisms in hgsc and provide the scientific community with a unique experimental model that incorporates the tme to stateoftheart hgsc pdos in addition this fellowship will allow me to enhance my international visibility through highimpact publications independent from my phd supervisor and provide me with a great track record in obtaining independent funding essential to successfully secure independent research grants in the future
diabetes pericyteorchestrated islet inflammation as a driver of betacell failure

type 2 diabetes t2d has reached epidemic proportions killing millions each year however our incomplete understanding of its etiology hinders the quest for a cure t2d is caused by pancreatic cell failure and insulin resistance recent studies point to aberrant islet inflammation as a driver of diabetes while inflammation is beneficial for insulin secretion during homeostasis it may transform to harm cell function and impair the glucose response how islet inflammation maintains glucose homeostasis and why it converts to being destructive remain largely open questions here i introduce a novel physiological mechanism pericyteorchestrated islet inflammation piin which is disturbed by diabetes risk factors to cause cell failure to establish its requirement for cell function we will first define the role of piin in homeostasis we will then determine how t2d environmental risks such as obesity and aging hamper pericyte cytokine production and transform islet inflammation to cause cell dysfunction lastly we will link t2d genetic risk factors with aberrant piin to this end we will analyze human and mouse tissues and use transgenic models to manipulate cells and genes to define the effect of piin on cell function ultimately our findings will provide a mechanism through which t2d risk factors induce cell failure and promote disease progression the implications of this project are farreaching as they will introduce a novel cellular mechanism that integrates metabolic and genetic risks to cause diabetes furthermore our findings will implicate piin as a novel target for new therapeutic approaches to diabetes
divergence and convergence in dialogue the dynamic management of mismatches

human interaction is deceptively simple to engage in yet surprisingly challenging to account for theoretically existing theories of language and cognition cannot fully account for the complex dynamics of verbal and nonverbal behaviours in interaction which is becoming even more apparent with our increasing use of computermediated communication such as the currently ubiquitous zoom callswith divcon my vision is to transform our basic understanding of human interaction by showing how successful dialogue is driven by incremental local and dynamic processes of mismatch managementin our everyday interactions we continuously make predictions about what will happen next based on how our own and others behaviour affects the world to open up new possible courses of action in dialogue these predictions are about sounds words inferences and even nonspeech actions such as gestures or eye gaze if our expectations are not met we have to ascertain if the mismatching input can be resolved or integrated as a surprising but rewarding outcome as in the case of humourdivcon will produce a suite of corpus and experimental data for exploring the timely issues of communication via different forms of computermediated communication including textbased chats video calls and virtual reality meetings to do this the project will create a novel experimental platform for experiments in real time live multimodal interactions using avatars and virtual reality the formal arm of the project will develop a precise theory of divergence and convergence in interaction which unifies verbal and nonverbal dialogue phenomena including gesture gaze feedback and laughter using core notions of prediction and underspecification this model will be implementable in conversational ai an important step in the path to genuinely adaptive conversational ai systems which are still beyond the reach of researchers despite the promise of recent decades

experimental vaccinology revealing unnatural signatures of protection by repeat controlled human schistosome infection

schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease afflicting over 200 million people and causing 300000 deaths in africa alone whilst infections can be cleared with schistosomocidal drugs individuals will become rapidly reinfected upon exposure to contaminated water partial immunity only develops naturally only after decades of constant infection and there is no vaccine previous schistosome vaccine studies have been flawed due to a lack of understanding of what constitutes a protective immune response focus on single antigen targets and a lack of pharmaceutical industry support or expertise for developmenthere i propose to use unique samples from repeat schistosoma mansoni controlled human infection smchi models to reveal novel antigens and corresponding cellular and cytokine responses that are protective against schistosomiasis to evaluate how well this protective signature will translate to endemic countries matched analyses will be performed in samples from naturally schistosome infected ugandan individuals antigenspecific antibody and cellular immunology data will be combined utilising bioinformatic tools to reveal a signature of multiple antigens and immune responses associated with protection from schistosomiasis next in a nonacademic placement at batavia biosciences i will develop a preclinical development plan to translate the identified protective immune signature into an effective vaccine against human schistosomiasis this fellowship will form the basis of my future career development to become an independent researcher in the field of schistosome vaccinology
entangled freedoms decolonial modernisms as transnational relations of resistance 1940s1980s

entangledfreedoms studies how practices and discourses of artistic modernism from the decolonizing worlds of asia africa and the middle east entangled with plural and contesting notions of freedom during 20thcentury decolonization and cold war taking scopes of freedom out of hegemonic cold war binaries of western first world vs socialist second world values i read it instead in dialogue with its resonant global vocabularies of independenceliberationemancipation and via visual art i argue that during cold war decades of 1940s1980s decolonial modernisms from third world contexts of asia africa and the middle east with their visions of freedom as anticolonial independence and liberation movements both engaged with and resisted first world notions of freedom as universalist individualism and socialist second world notions of freedoms as revolutionary struggle drawing from the caribbean theorist douard glissant i call these relations of resistance whereby decolonial modernisms relate with firstsecond world ideas of freedom via difference not in unilinear assimilation or resistance or in pure refusals via nonalignment in entangledfreedoms i lead a project team to answer collectively a research question not yet asked in the expanding fields of global art histories postcolonial studies or even 21stcentury decolonial theories how did 20thcentury decolonial modernisms visualize entangle and transform plural visions of freedoms across and beyond geographies of cold war and decolonization with its empirically rooted historical and relational methods and a theoretically generative research plan for comparative decolonial aesthetics from asia africa and the middle east in relation with euroamerican histories entangledfreedoms is an ambitious transnational project that puts entangled artistic and political imagination from the decolonizing world at the heart of a potential global historiography of art and freedoms
