Doctoral candidates at FAU’s Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy have learnt from some of the best in the world. Along with many renowned international researchers, Nobel laureate in chemistry Brian Kobilka recently visited the University for a symposium held by Research Training Group 1910. The St...

Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics FAU has demonstrated its strength in research and its powers of innovation once again, receiving an excellent rating in the international U-Multirank university ranking in the Research and Knowledge Transfer categories for the third year running in 2016. In the...

FAU geologists participate in EU research project on improving geothermal systems Geologists at FAU want to find out how much the construction and operating costs of geothermal systems can be reduced. As part of a four-year international project, they will work with 15 European partners from resear...

FAU researchers develop uranium-based catalyst for the production of a CO2 neutral energy carrier Chemists at FAU have found a new use for depleted uranium, the waste product of nuclear energy which has been accumulating over decades: they have developed a uranium-based catalyst which converts wate...

FAU researchers uncover how arsenic gets into the grain Rice is a key food source in many parts of the world. However, it is not uncommon for it to contain arsenic. Biologists at FAU have now found an approach that could help to reduce the amount of arsenic found in rice. Every day millions of p...

Researchers celebrate inauguration of prototype telescope for world's largest gamma-ray telescope array At the beginning of December, an international team of researchers, including members from FAU, celebrated the inauguration of the prototype Gamma-ray Cherenkov Telescope (GCT), which was develop...

FAU researchers investigate how light behaves in curved space To investigate the influence of gravity on the propagation of light, researchers usually have to examine astronomical length scales and huge masses. However, physicists at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Fried...
