Research
The research within eSSENCE spans over a wide area, including science, engineering, medicine, social science, economics, and humanities.
The research is focused on four focus areas: materials science, life sciences, citizen earth and cornerstone technologies.
Special support is given to collaborative projects with the potential to open up new applications.
Our focus areas
Materials Science
Starts from the smallest of building blocks to see how they combine to produce the properties of materials.
Life Sciences
Strive to understand the machinery of life, including medical applications and animal behaviour.
Citizen Earth
Covers the social and technological aspects of human life, the study of our home planet and its climate as well as looking beyond into the rest of the Universe.
Cornerstone Technologies
Contain efforts to improve and expand our e-Science toolbox to solve problems faster and more efficiently, regardless of the area of the application.
