It is poorly understood how macrophages interact with other cells and commensal microbes (microbiota) to achieve the balance between barrier immunity and tissue homeostasis in the lung. Novel experimental systems are required to investigate the interaction between macrophages, innate lymphoid cells (ILC), and the microbiota since the immune system, inflammatory responses, and microbiota differ bet...

MACRO CASCADE – Cascading Marine Macroalgal Biorefinery (MACRO CASCADE)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2016, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2020,

MACRO CASCADE will prove the concept of the cascading marine macroalgal biorefinery i.e. a production platform that covers the whole technological chain for processing sustainable cultivated macro-algae biomass – also known as seaweed - to highly processed value added products. The macro-algae biorefinery will be capable of processing multiple feedstocks, by deploying a range of mechanical, phy...

New Approaches to the Identification of Macroeconomic Models (Macro Identification)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2020,

Macroeconomic data are largely non-experimental. Thus, causal inference in macroeconomics is largely based on assumptions about what aspects of the variation in the data are exogenous. This presents two major challenges, which this research addresses directly. First, few such assumptions are generally accepted. Second, conditional on any set of assumptions, identification of causal effects is ofte...

We develop some tools to relax this assumption while retaining fully optimal behaviour by agents. We study implications for asset pricing and macro policy.We assume that agents have a consistent set of beliefs that is close, b...
