Project overview

The novel approach of detecting bioelectric fields using fiber optic sensors is being researched in this project. This could, for example, prevent skin irritation in newborns through contactless biosignal detection.

At the interface between physics, biotechnology and engineering, EndoPrint3D aims to surgically repair organ damage in the body in a minimally invasive manner. This is done by means of endoscopic micro-3D printing of biological tissue.

Funding is being provided for the establishment of a professorship for computer science and its didactics at KIT. The endowed professorship is intended to support the university in the training of teachers for the subject of computer science.

Funding is being provided for the establishment of a professorship for computer science and its didactics at the Tübingen School of Education, a central inter-faculty academic institution for teacher training at the University of Tübingen.

The professorship connects the two constituent profile lines of teacher education and computer science at the University's Koblenz campus and thus forms an integrating interface.

The endowed professorship is a building block for raising the profile of computer science and for teacher training at Trier University. It is to be advertised as a junior professorship in the tenure track procedure.

Funding is being provided for the establishment of a professorship for glass and glass technology at Koblenz University of Applied Sciences. The professorship's research will focus, among other things, on the high-energy processes of the glass and ceramics industry and the possibilities for resource efficiency.

CZS junior professor Andrea Pannwitz (tenure track) is researching a pioneering energy conversion process at the University of Jena and HIPOLE. The aim is to use solar energy to convert carbon dioxide into valuable compounds and produce hydrogen.

Prof. Dr Michèle Finck has taken over the endowed professorship for the law of artificial intelligence in Tübingen as of 01.07.2021. The chair is intended to meet the challenges of self-learning AI and Big Data to the value and legal system.

The research vision of Prof. Dr. Fabian Kennel, Professor of Automation and Energy Systems Engineering, is to rethink the energy management of energy networks. Temporary surpluses are to be used and intelligent control elements applied.
