FOR 756 Base Project 1: Vulnerability and household dynamics: Conceptual and empirical issues for Thailand and Vietnam (Project)

Traditional poverty assessments, which can only present a static picture of poverty, often miss dynamic aspects of the situation. Research in economic development is, therefore, rapidly moving beyond static poverty measures to include aspects of risks, shocks, and vulnerability. This effort has lead to numerous definitions and measurements focusing on different dimensions of vulnerability, which...

Collaborative project: Quality-related grain harvest based on the use of optical analysis techniques – Subproject 1 (Project)

Quality is an essential attribute of agricultural products and production processes. Wheat quality is primarily classified according to protein concentration and sub classified depending on additional parameters, such as moisture content, sedimentation value and falling number (HFN). Real-time sensing of grain protein concentration by means of near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) is an...

GRK 1029 P1A: Role of the vitamin D hormone system for insulin secretion in swine (Project)

It is the aim of this dissertation project to characterize the alterations in insulin synthesis and secretion in PVDRI pigs by in vivo and ex vivo experiments. Because hypocalcemia is a strong factor influencing insulin secretion, it is a prerequisite for this subproject to establish the methods necessary to normalize calcium and phosphorus blood levels in PVDRI pigs. In vivo insulin secretory...
