An increasing awareness of the negative impact of noise and vibration exposure on our health along with ever tightening ecological and economic demands has led to an intensive search for innovative lightweight noise and vibration solutions. Metamaterials have emerged and shown strong potential to outperform traditional solutions. Although promising, the manufacturing of metamaterials is c…
As first cells recruited to inflammatory sites, neutrophils weaken infections, but also cause excessive tissue destruction and immunopathology. Neutrophils are known to be crucial to clear bacterial pathogens, but their contribution to host defense and response to viral diseases, e.g. arbovirus-induced encephalitis or arthritogenic disease are much less understood. Indeed, seen as seconda…
Luminescent materials (also called phosphors) have the ability to emit light after energy is provided to the material. Typical applications include solid state lighting (e.g. LEDs), lasers and medical imaging. In some materials, impurities or imperfections in the crystal lattice can create defects (or traps) which extend the time between absorption and the emission of light. This is explo…

Several ecosystems worldwide are subjected to droughts with certain frequency, and drought stress is a major driver of ecosystem functioning decreases, productivity losses, and disruptions in the carbon balance. Global climate change might aggravate issues related to drought stress, since more frequent and extreme droughts are expected in the future due to changes in the climate, and we s…
The evolution of sociality in ants, bees and wasps is a prime example of a major transition in evolution, where individuals went to live in societies characterised by the presence of an advanced reproductive division of labour. In primitively eusocial species, the allocation to reproductive and nonreproductive roles in the colony is highly plastic, while in more advanced eusocial species,…
Plant fitness is highly dependent on the ability to cope with multiple (a)biotic environmental cues, such as light and interacting organisms. Complex signaling networks driven by perception of these cues and involving endogenously produced phytohormones, program the appropriate cellular and organismal response and steer plant development and metabolism to promote fitness and survival. Oft…
