Understanding the decline of biodiversity on islands | Biodiversité | Scoop.it
This round of ERC Advanced Grant funding will help 253 senior researchers carry out their innovative projects. We selected five examples to examine in detail, from Spain, France, Finland, Slovenia and Germany. They deal with biodiversity on islands, the modelling of adaptive and evolutionary biology for single cells, as well as quantum computers made of superconducting electric circuits. In addition, the selected projects tackle questions such as what the Cosmic Dawn looked like, and how language sounds change over time.
