The challenge of energy supply
The challenge of energy supply
Whether photovoltaics, geothermal energy, electrolysis for water splitting or a self-built wind turbine: At a four-day Science Camp at the TU Ilmenau, 20 students from the national Excellence School Network MINT-EC dealt with various aspects of energy supply from June 19 to 22. In small groups and supported by staff and student tutors, they explored from various technical perspectives how we can use our energy resources optimally and responsibly in the future.

Using the tools of chemistry to search for life in space
Phosphorus is one of the building blocks of life and has never been discovered beyond Earth. Scientists from Germany, Japan and the USA have now proven that phosphorus salts can be found in an ocean under the ice of Saturn's moon Enceladus and have published their findings in the journal Nature. Among them is Bernd Abel from the Institute of Technical Chemistry at the University of Leipzig.

Using ’Mini-Organs’ to Study Disease
University of Bonn appoints two new Argelander Professors specializing in organoid biology Two new assistant professors at the University of Bonn are setting out to develop "mini-organs" in order to study metabolic and disease mechanisms. Elena Reckzeh is using these so-called organoids to identify new drug candidates, while Ana Ivonne Vazquez-Armendariz hopes that they can give her a better understanding of lung disease.

When Light Meets an Atom
When Light Meets an Atom
When light hits matter, the interactions depend primarily on the material and the intensity of the light source - a flashlight merely illuminates a stone, while a high-powered laser can burn a hole in it.

Chemist Jörg Matysik co-authors review article on spin hyperpolarization
News from Magnetic resonance techniques are used in a wide range of scientific disciplines and in practice. The best-known example is magnetic resonance imaging in medicine. These techniques are currently enjoying a major boost thanks to the rapidly developing field of spin hyperpolarization. This can considerably increase the intensity of signals, counteracting the relatively low sensitivity of magnetic resonance.

Bacterial toxin renders algae motionless
Bacterial toxin renders algae motionless
Biologists and chemists at the University of Jena decipher properties of a bacterial toxin that renders the unicellular green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii motionless. The toxin appears to hijak the calcium channels of the target algae, causing a rapid influx of calcium ions that within one minute results in the loss of the algal flagella and therefore the algal means of escape.
