ERC Starting Grant Projects

With funding from the ERC Starting Grant, Claudius Zibrowius wants to mathematically prove the so-called cosmetic crossing conjecture.

With his ERC Starting Grant, Nils Jansen is researching how artificial intelligence applications can become more reliable and safe.

As part of her ERC Starting Grant, Anna Böhmer is researching specific electron states in superconductors. The recently discovered phenomenon raises many questions.

Michael Walter brings together research areas that, at first glance, have little to do with each other – ranging from algebra to quantum computing.

Global satellite navigation systems enable the precise tracking of Earth movements. Professor Jonathan Bedford intends to tap this potential within the framework of an ERC grant.

Autophagy enables plants to degrade proteins and other cellular components. The grant focuses on the role this process plays in the interaction between plants and microbes.

We tend to notice the negative qualities of strangers more than the positive ones. Even if we don’t have any bad intentions.

Kristina Tschulik’s team studies individual nanoparticles in order to use them as a model for optimized catalysts.

Solvents make up a large percentage of the waste generated by the chemical industry. Lars Borchardt can do without them altogether.

The ERC grant seeks to anticipate and govern the intricate dynamics of driven dissipative colloidal crystals that mirror characteristics of living organisms.

New sources of terahertz radiation should deliver previously unimagined insights into areas such as the behavior of water.
