The number of people suffering from dementia is increasing from year to year. In order to improve the care available to them, the 'Bavarian Digital Dementia Register (DigiDEM)' is to be launched at FAU in January 2019. The German state government is funding the project with 2.2 million euros.

FAU scientists research rheumatoid arthritis and its causes. The German Research Foundation is to fund the project in future within the framework of a DFG research group.

Chemists, materials scientists and chemical engineers at FAU have developed an innovative microcell for water electrolysis. They have received 2.5 million euros in funding for their project aimed at replacing standard plate electrodes used to split water with compact, nanostructured tubes.
