The periodic table turns 150 this year. We took this as an opportunity to ask our scientists about their favorite element. Today: Dr. Puchta on beryllium.
Prof. Dr. Tentzeri's research interests include RF electronics, batteries and sensors manufactured using 3D printing or ink-jet processes, as well as green and sustainable energy harvesting, wireless energy transmission systems or the Internet of Things. He is the winner of the Alexander von Humboldt Research Award and works as a visiting scientist at FAU's Department of Technical Electronics in the development of new RF modules from the 3D printer.
How will the role of doctors and patients change if AI is used in diagnostic procedures? Who is responsible for the consequences of AI-assisted processes in clinical contexts? FAU ethicist Prof. Dr. Peter Dabrock and his team are working on a research project to investigate these questions.
Neuroscientists at FAU and the University of Birmingham have researched how different regions of the brain cooperate to create and retrieve memories. Their results may help improve the treatment of memory disorders in future.
In recognition of her research, FAU computer scientist Elisabeth Hoppe from the Pattern Recognition Lab has been shortlisted for the AI newcomer of the year award by the Gesellschaft für Informatik (German Informatics Society). We met to discuss her research approach and what she finds so fascinating about artificial intelligence.
The periodic table turns 150 this year. We took this as an opportunity to ask our scientists about their favorite element. Today: Prof. Dr. Harder on calcium.
A team of researchers at FAU led by Dr. Stefan Schwab is researching effective pesticides for organic wine growing. The researchers hope to use the microencapsulation principle to tackle the problem of downy mildew, a serious fungal infection which affects vines.
