The aim is to facilitate breakthrough scientific developments leading to new concepts and products. COST does not fund research but supports networking (COST Actions) via different tools such as meetings, short-term scientific exchanges, training schools and dissemination activities. COST Actions have a duration of 4 years. The deadline to submit a COST Action is usually in October. COST Actions do not cover research funding. Integration into existing COST actions is possible.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nSwitzerland is one of the founding countries of COST and a full member of the COST Association. Thanks to this status, researchers in Switzerland are entitled to participate in COST Actions or to coordinate them and submit applications for new Actions. Thus, scientists based in Switzerland are fully eligible for all COST activities and for reimbursement of their related expenses.<br>\r\nSNSF provides support for the proposal preparation for COST Actions.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFind information about open calls and guidelines on <a href=\"https://www.cost.eu/\"><strong>COST Europe</strong></a><br>\r\nContact <a href=\"https://www.snf.ch/en/EpxgsoxjZBQv6id1/funding/programmes/cost\"><strong>SNSF COST webpage</strong></a> for support services.<br>\r\nSNSF Contact: Ladina Knapp,<strong> </strong><a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a><strong> </strong><br>\r\nContact <a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</a> for questions<br>\r\n<br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2025-10-23T14:32:45", "last_modification_date": "2025-10-23T14:51:56", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/118257/", "category": { "id": 16, "code": "PROP", "fr_label": "Appel à proposition", "en_label": "Call for proposal", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/140/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70604, "title": "Marie Skłodovska-Curie Doctoral Networks", "slug": "marie-skodovska-curie-doctoral-networks", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/marie-skodovska-curie-doctoral-networks", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32038/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32038/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32038/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-24", "end_date": "2026-11-24", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<strong>Aim</strong><br>\r\nThe <a href=\"https://marie-sklodowska-curie-actions.ec.europa.eu/funding/msca-doctoral-networks-2026\">Marie Skłodovska-Curie Doctoral Networks (MSCA-DN)</a> implement doctoral programs for training in research and transferable skills by partnerships of universities, research institutions and research infrastructures, businesses including SMEs, and other socio-economic actors from different countries across Europe and beyond.

Of particular interest is its interplay with magnetism, anticipated already by Pierre Curie in 1894, as well as the emergence and propagation of chirality through molecular organization. Here, we explore these connections at surfaces, from the interaction of individual chiral molecules with magnetic substrates and spin-polarized electrons to the collective organization of molecular chirality in extended two-dimensional structures. First, we demonstrate enantioselective adsorption of individual helicene molecules on ferromagnetic cobalt surfaces. Spin- and chirality-resolved scanning tunneling microscopy reveals that left- and right-handed helicenes preferentially adsorb on Co islands with opposite out-of-plane magnetization, establishing a direct correlation between molecular handedness and substrate magnetization. Second, tunneling-conductance measurements through individual enantiomers reveal magnetochiral asymmetries of up to 50%, demonstrating spin-selective electron transport at the single-molecule level and excluding ensemble effects as the sole origin of chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS). Finally, we report the first observation of aperiodic chiral molecular tiling arising from topological self-assembly on a silver surface, demonstrating how molecular chirality can propagate from individual building blocks into complex collective organization.", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-10-01T19:17:53", "last_modification_date": "2026-10-02T08:39:11", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "CH G1 495", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==CH%20G1%20495", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Karl-Heinz Ernst (EMPA)", "organizer": "Sascha Feldmann", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "pcseminar", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/122021/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/14/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72737, "title": "PChem Seminar - Adriana Pietropaolo", "slug": "pchem-seminar-adriana-pietropaolo", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/pchem-seminar-adriana-pietropaolo", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33982/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33982/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33982/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-12", "end_date": "2026-11-12", "start_time": "17:00:00", "end_time": "18:00:00", "description": "<strong>Theory-Guided Design of Chiral Hybrid Perovskites</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nChiral halide perovskites combine the outstanding optoelectronic properties of the inorganic<br>\r\noctahedra with the chirality of the organic cations, enabling control over light polarization and electron<br>\r\nspin<sup>1</sup>. This makes them promising platforms for spin-optoelectronics and quantum technologies<sup>2,3</sup>.<br>\r\nDesigning them rationally, however, requires understanding how chirality is transferred from the<br>\r\norganic cations to the inorganic framework, and how this transfer governs their chiroptical and spin<br>\r\nproperties<sup>4</sup>.<br>\r\nIn this seminar I will present a simulation framework that combines ab initio molecular dynamics, freeenergy<br>\r\nmethods and time-dependent density functional theory to predict circular dichroism (CD),<br>\r\ncircularly polarized luminescence (CPL), absorption and emission dissymmetry factors (gabs, glum) in<br>\r\nchiral perovskites. Applied to (R/S-MBA)2PbI4 and its tin analogue, this approach shows that<br>\r\nenantiomeric excess acts as a continuous dial for chiroptical properties<sup>5</sup>. The response follows a<br>\r\ncooperative majority-rule mechanism, which we validated against experiments across the full<br>\r\nenantiomeric series. Electronic-structure analysis links the two characteristic CD bands to distinct<br>\r\nband-edge and organic–inorganic transitions.<br>\r\nI will also discuss how chemical strain and hydrostatic pressure can tune the intensity and sign of CPL<br>\r\nemission<sup>6</sup>, and how structural chirality, spin-orbit coupling and lattice distortions may shape spin<br>\r\npolarization. Together, these results outline predictive design rules for chiral perovskites with tailored<br>\r\noptical and spin functionalities.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>References</strong><br>\r\n1.

A borrower raises funds for an initial investment and may need financing after observing a private liquidity shock.

The optimal simple debt contract is an endogenous debt limit. It captures the intertemporal commitment–flexibility tradeoff: more borrowing today fi nances investment but increases dilution incentives, requiring tighter limits on future borrowing. Richer clauses, including performance-sensitive debt and contingent prepayment provisions, re store the exclusive-lending benchmark by compensating existing lenders when new financing is raised.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-06-03T15:01:15", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-30T13:50:47", "link_label": "Paper", "link_url": "https://yunzhihu.web.unc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/14825/2026/08/draft-v4.pdf", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "UNIL, Extranef, room 126", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://yunzhihu.web.unc.edu/\">Yunzhi Hu - The University of North Carolina</a>", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120962/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/112/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/3/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/116/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/105/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72023, "title": "Seminar in Finance", "slug": "seminar-in-finance-30", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/seminar-in-finance-30", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33316/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33316/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33316/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-30", "end_date": "2026-10-30", "start_time": "11:00:00", "end_time": "12:15:00", "description": "", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-06-03T15:10:00", "last_modification_date": "2026-06-03T16:52:30", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "UNIL, Extranef, room 126", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://www.edhec.edu/en/research-and-faculty/faculty/professors-and-researchers/raman-uppal\">Raman Uppal - EDHEC</a>", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120963/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/112/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/3/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/116/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/105/?format=api" ] } ] }
