Prof. Dr. Dominique Buchenau, Professor of Solid State Physics and Physical Measurement Technology at the Ernst Abbe University of Applied Sciences in Jena, is involved in the development of contactless sensor technology based on magnetic and inductive measurement and functional principles.
Materials with memory, so-called memristive materials, are intended to reproduce biological paradigms of information processing, such as learning and memory formation, extremely precisely and thus offer a new hardware basis for information technology.
Scientists from the fields of geology, chemistry and physics are working on how established methods of earthquake research can be reduced from the kilometer scale to nanometer dimensions and how cells, for example, can be mapped directly in 3D in the future.
Prof. Dr. Tanja Maritzen has been appointed as an Endowed Professor of Nanophysiology - High Resolution Subcellular Pattern Formation at TU Kaiserslautern.
"Noble Talks" is a public lecture series at the Beutenberg Campus in Jena. Internationally renowned scientists, including Nobel Prize winners, present current topics from science and technology twice a year.
The OAE, which is based at the House of Astronomy in Heidelberg, aims to support astronomers and teachers worldwide in awakening a fascination for astronomy among pupils and to promote the exchange of experiences in educational work.
With the aim of using astronomical telescopes more efficiently, Optics4Space is developing a space-saving optical beam splitter. This is to be used for the first time on a small satellite.
Prof. Dr Steve Bohaty has held the professorship of palaeontology at Heidelberg University since 1 February 2022. He previously conducted research at the University of Southampton, UK.
Prof. Dr. Paul Engelke, Professor of Wastewater Treatment and Water Treatment at the EAH Jena, is developing a digital analysis tool for predictive, intelligent maintenance of wastewater treatment plant components in the areas of construction and mechanical engineering.
Prof. Dr. Tobias Hauser holds the professorship for Computational Psychiatry at the University of Tübingen since February 15, 2023. Previously, he conducted research at University College London.
