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...

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has named a lecture hall after her. Here in Germany, hardly anyone knows her name. And yet she could be a real inspiration for young women in science: Dixie Lee Bryant, the daughter of a businessman from Kentucky, USA, studied at MIT before becoming th...

This year the Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded to three pioneers of quantum research. Their experiments are honored as groundbreaking not only for the better understanding of quantum mechanics but also as enabling the development of revolutionary new technologies – quantum technologies. If the now ...

At the end of the Permian Period, approximately 250 million years ago, more than 80 percent of all maritime species became extinct after volcanic eruptions in Siberia released huge quantities of greenhouse gases and caused the atmosphere to heat up. Using what is known as a paleothermometer, a team ...

Start of new ARIADNE programme rounds: Female students and young scientists from the Faculty of Sciences and the Faculty of Engineering can now apply for admission to a new round of the career mentoring programme ARIADNETechNat.
