Are you working on the investigations on biological
effects of optical radiation in relation to human beings?
Why not applying to the 22. Arnold Rikli Award (10.000 € for the year 2025)?

Plants require sunlight to survive, yet excessive exposure can cause photodamage.

Luckily a photoprotective "switch" triggers the conversion of excess solar energy to harmless heat.

Nicoletta Liguori @icfo.eu will research the mechanics involved.
