Research

Not one, but two researchers at FAU have been awarded a Synergy Grant, one of the most prestigious grants awarded by the European Research Council.

A team of laser physicists at FAU has now succeeded in demonstrating the first nanophotonic electron accelerator – at the same time as colleagues from Stanford University. The researchers from FAU have now published their findings in the journal “Nature”.

How do antibodies prevent an infection with HIV? A team of researchers led by Prof. Dr. Klaus Überla can now answer this question.

Does playing in dirt really make children healthier and protect against allergies? The new study conducted by a team of researchers at FAU and the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm has now raised doubts about this assumption.

FAU scientists are carrying out research into 3D printing methods for manufacturing personalized medication.

At FAU, an interdisciplinary team of researchers is working on developing solar-powered airships. An interview with Christoph Pflaum, professor of Computer Science.

FAU scientists Dr. Alexander B. Tesler and Prof. Dr. Wolfgang H. Goldmann have taken advantage of a trick insects use to stay dry while diving into the water and transferred it to the principle of materials: They are stabilizing surfaces with the help of a thin film of air.

Archaeologists from FAU and the University of Cologne have worked together with animal tracking experts from the Nyae Nyae Conservancy in Tsumkwe, Namibia, to investigate the engraved animal tracks on six rock. Their findings have now been published in the journal PLOS ONE.

As part of the “Next2OEM” project (with a total funding amount of over 24 million euros), researchers at FAU want to examine, digitalize and automate the entire value chain. This will eliminate both the “clutter” of steps in the process and in the responsibilities involved.

DECAM exploits the highly complementary scientific expertise and infrastructure and simultaneously facilitates the scientific collaboration and networking in the field of the development and characterization of advanced materials
