Quest for trace biomarkers in complex media through innovative nanoscale science of fluids, molecules, particles and light. This project will break new ground in the detection of rare molecules in biological samples by exploiting the interactions of fluids, molecules and particles confined in nanoscale channels. By revealing yet unknown biomarkers the project will bring a radical change in medical diagnostics and in the science and technology used to map the Human Proteome.
Online and offline social networks and the development of sexual agency. This project will explore whether there exists a relationship between adolescents' social networks (both online and offline) and one important aspect of healthy sexual development - the development of sexual agency - and if so, it will investigate the nature of that relationship. The longitudinal mixed methods study proposed here aims to capture the development of sexual behaviours and the online and offline interactions ad ....Online and offline social networks and the development of sexual agency. This project will explore whether there exists a relationship between adolescents' social networks (both online and offline) and one important aspect of healthy sexual development - the development of sexual agency - and if so, it will investigate the nature of that relationship. The longitudinal mixed methods study proposed here aims to capture the development of sexual behaviours and the online and offline interactions adolescents engage in. This project aims to determine: whether there is a relationship between adolescents' online and offline social networks and the development of sexual agency; if such a relationship exists, what is its nature? And, if the relationship exists, to what extent is the relationship moderated by online social media use?Read moreRead less
