Chaque année, la Fondation du Pélican, sous l'égide de la Fondation de Luxembourg, attribue à plusieurs doctorants affiliés au programme de biomédecine systémique et moléculaire de la Doctoral School in Science and Engineering (DSSE) de l'Université du Luxembourg la « Pelican Grant ». Cette bourse peut être utilisée pour des dépenses de recherche, telles que des coûts pour des expériences supplémentaires ou des frais de voyage pour participer à des conférences et des ateliers de formation, ainsi que pour financer des séjours de courte durée à l'étranger dans le cadre de collaborations de recherche.
Félicitations aux bénéficiaires de la subvention 2020 :
Research topic: Investigate whether serine catabolism is important for cellular function under nutrient stress conditions during the process of tumorigenesis. Improve the understanding of the bioenergetics to treat the cancer cells.
Research topic: Early-life adversity (ELA) is a risk factor for many non-communicable diseases. Using the EpiPath cohort, examine how ELA affects the establishment of the microbiome in early life, and treating changes in the microbiome, immune system and epigenome visible many years later in a holistic, integrative manner.
Research topic: Understanding the effects of dietary fiber-deprivation on host health, mainly through gnotobiotic mouse models.
Research topic: Understanding of the critical brain developmental states of mid-gestation by associating cell-type specific expression profiles with distinct disease risks, thanks to the application of the recent technology of single-cell multi-omics data.
Research topic: Development of solutions for the automatic analysis of biomedical images with Machine Learning and Deep Learning technologies.
