Disinformation Dynamics
While the information crisis is widely acknowledged, academic knowledge on the depth, extent and detailed manifestation of this crisis is lacking due to an evidence and research deficit.

Disruptive cross-fertilization of metaoptics and freeform optics for next-generation optical design
The 21st century is sometimes termed the Century of the Photon. The general trend in optics and photonics is about better performances, compactness and multifunctionality in the same volume.

DNA Hairpins for Asymmetric Catalysis
DNA is not only one of the most important biopolymers, but also an extremely interesting functional polymer for molecular self-assembly. In catalysis, it can be used to assemble so-called “hybrid catalysts”, which are formed from a piece of DNA and a low molecular weight metal complex.

Duality, Geometry and Spacetime
In string theory one assumes that elementary particles are not point like but rather little strings (higher dimensional objects, called branes, appear as well). A string like object perceives geometry (e.g. the ambient spacetime) in a very different way than what a point particle does.

Dynamic Data Physicalisation and Tangible User Interfaces
With the growing amount to data produced by humans as well as embedded sensors, there is a need for tools to analyse the resulting large datasets. Nowadays the exploration and analysis of large datasets is mainly supported by advanced visualisation techniques.

Epigenetic reprogramming during oogenesis: unravelling the link with oocyte developmental competence and with offspring health
During oogenesis, an extensive epigenetic reprogramming occurs. This process is of major importance, as oocyte methylation can affect gene expression after fertilization.

European and international data law: Empirical perspectives
Researchers with innovative research projects on European and international data law are invited to broaden, strengthen and/or critically question existing knowledge on European Union (EU) and global data law, and most notably privacy and data protection law, with original empirical research on c
