Constitutional Populism: Friend or Foe of Constitutional Democracy?
Field of Research (FoR):
The project aims to identify, reconstruct, and evaluate legal and constitutional aims of, and institutional solutions adopted by, regimes that have come to power in a global wave of ‘populist’ parties challenging traditional ones - examining whether they respect both the forms and under

Regulation of glucose uptake by tropomyosins and myosins
Although the actin cytoskeleton has been known for some time to regulate vesicle trafficking, its exact role in this process is still unclear. This has largely been due to the difficulty in targeting specific actin filaments within the same cell.
Towards a more accountable United Nations Security Council
Field of Research (FoR):

In Australia and among international researchers in smoking cessation, Robyn Richmond is among the very few who have been conducting research in general practice for almost four decades. Her work has resulted in significant changes in the practice of medicine where GPs now are trained in, and implement, smoking cessation interventions with their patients.
Building up quantum electronics with tailored semiconductor nanostructures
Field of Research (FoR):
SEO tags:
This project aims to develop a new generation of nanoscale InAs/GaSb devices produced ‘from the bottom up’ using state-of-the-art 3D templated semiconductor growth methods. This material’s key feature is a pair of electron and hole layers separated by a few nanometers.
Bioelectronic Logic
Field of Research (FoR):
