BlackDemon
The project outlined here aims to uncover firstly the formation pathways of MBHs and secondly to track the evolution and growth of MBHs in very early galaxies as the MBHs grow, merge and settle towards their host galaxy's centre.

BubbLe-modUlated Mixing in turbulENce (BLUMEN)
The interaction between bubbles and turbulence is a crucial aspect of many natural phenomena and industrial processes.

Chiral Particles in Homogeneous and Shear Turbulent Flow
Particles in turbulence are omnipresent. Dust in the atmosphere, sediment in marine environments or biological beings in a variety of turbulent flows are just some of the possible examples.

Cloud-Circulation Coupling in a Changing Climate (C5)
For the first time in the history of climate modelling, it is becoming possible to run multi-year climate simulations with a global atmospheric model that has a horizontal resolution of a few kilometers.

CoDiSuPoCo – Computational Discovery of Sustainable Polymers for Cosmetics
Polymers are ubiquitous in our society thanks to their relative ease of synthesis from petroleum-derived intermediates. Indeed, synthetic polymers can be formulated into diverse materials, have shown extreme durability, and can be manufactured at low cost.

Coherent Radiation Mechanisms in Extreme Plasma Physics
Astrophysical observations reveal that disorganised plasmas around compact objects produce coherent radiation. How orderly processes can arise from such conditions and give place to coherent dynamics still eludes us. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain these phenomena.

Computational Microscopy: in-cell co-translational folding and misfolding in health and disease
Most proteins in the cell begin to fold co-translationally on the ribosome while they emerge from its exit tunnel. A growing amount of evidence also demonstrates that the ribosome itself can significantly modulate this process.

Conformational Sampling of Neuronal Receptors for Rational Therapeutics Design
Determining atomic resolution structures of multiple functional states of protein would greatly aid the development of drugs to target these states and regulate biomolecular function.

Controlling the Electronic Properties of two Dimensional Systems
2D materials can be dramatically different from those of their 3D parents, thus unveiling novel physical phenomena and creating new technological potentialities.

Correlating structure with fracture toughness in disordered materials
Realizing the green transition requires not only materials with tailored functionalities, but also that we use less of these materials, which in turn requires that they can be designed to achieve a combination of high strength and toughness.
