An international team of researchers including the Chair of Medicinal Chemistry (Prof. Dr. Peter Gmeiner) has succeeded in “filming” the activation of an important receptor. They froze the involved molecules at different points in time and photographed them under the electron microscope. They were t...
Artificial intelligence is expected to accelerate the search for the perfect material for solar panels by a factor of ten. An interdisciplinary team from FAU is working on this. Researchers from materials science, engineering, chemistry, and computer science aim to implement a digital twin that bett...
Diseases are usually restricted to a certain organ or tissue in the human body. However, medications are typically not only administered to the site of disease but to the entire body. This can damage healthy tissue and cause unwanted side effects. To overcome this problem photopharmacology aims to d...
"3D Printing and Electrochemistry", "Nano Drug Delivery" and "Supraparticles" are three of the research areas of professors at the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy who have been newly appointed in the last three years. On April 14, 2023, the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy cordially invites...
Research disciplines have to work together closely to develop new bioactive compounds. To make this collaboration even more efficient in the future, FAU has set up a new research center called “New Bioactive Compounds” (FAU NeW). In this center, successful international and interdisciplinary teams o...
As of January 1, 2023, Siow Woon Ng is Junior Professor for Physical Chemistry of Interfaces at the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy. The tenure track professorship is affiliated to the Chair of Physical Chemistry II.
Prof. Ng studied physics and solid state physics at Universiti Sains Malays...
The right temperature matters – whether in technical processes, for the quality of food and medicines, or the lifetime of electronic components and batteries. For this purpose, temperature indicators record (un)desired temperature increases that can be read out later. Researchers in the group led by...
The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation has appointed two members of the Faculty of Sciences, Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Steinrück, Chair of Physical Chemistry II, and Prof. Dr. Enrique Zuazua, Chair of Dynamics, Control and Numerics, as Henriette Herz Scouts. In this funding program, scouts can attract up ...
The Chair of Physical Chemistry I (Prof. Dr. Dirk M. Guldi) and the Chair of Materials Science (Materials of Electronics and Energy Technology, Prof. Dr. Christoph Brabec) cordially invite all interested students and (junior) researchers to the Next Generation Solar Energy Conference, which will tak...
