Chemistry: A sophisticated process stacks dye molecules in such a way that their luminosity increases significantly as their size grows - a significant step forward for the electronics of tomorrow.

Biological communities in Europe are responding to climate change in markedly different ways, with clear contrasts between ecosystems, according to a new study published in Nature.

Kitchen sponges are among the most frequently used household items - and may also represent a previously underestimated source of microplastics.

Researchers have produced exceptionally long chains of an electrically conductive polymer known as poly(p-phenylene) (PPP).

The University and University Hospital of Würzburg have demonstrated magnetic particle imaging on humans for the first time. The new procedure enables radiation-free visualisation of blood vessels in real time.

Bird communities in forests change significantly over the course of the year. Nevertheless, the differences between various forest types remain clearly discernible across the seasons.

Researchers at Leipzig University have achieved a success in microrobotics. They were able to show for the first time that tiny, synthetic microswimmers perceive their environment directly via their own body shape and adapt autonomously in strongly changing fluid currents.

Researchers at Leipzig University have achieved a breakthrough in microrobotics. For the first time, they have shown that tiny synthetic microswimmers can perceive their surroundings directly through their own body shape and autonomously adapt to rapidly changing fluid flows.
