New paper of the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat in “Science”: The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation has been experimentally verified for the first time on 2D surfaces – thanks to sophisticated material design and polaritons.

The Living-Lines app recognises handwritten calculation paths and provides immediate feedback - an AI tool from the University of Würzburg that relieves teachers and helps learners individually.

Rainforest cleared for agriculture can regenerate: trees and animals return. This is shown by a new study published in “Nature”; researchers from the Würzburg Biocentre are involved.

A specific protein controls mRNA transport in fungi and distinguishes important from unimportant binding sites in the transported mRNAs. Researchers from Würzburg and Düsseldorf have discovered this mechanism.

Tiny, light-driven nanorobots that can selectively capture, transport, and remove bacteria? A Würzburg research team has now demonstrated how such microscopic cleaners can be employed and precisely controlled.

Mechthild Dreyer and Hans-Joachim Diener establish a foundation for JMU – Lecture series to mark the ‘450th anniversary of the Juliusspital’ – Living with wolves: studies point the way forward – Early-career research group: legal issues surrounding nuclear fusion

José Pedro Friedmann Angeli, Professor of Translational Cell Biology in Würzburg, has been awarded the prize in the “Experimental Research” category – together with his colleague Professor Marcus Conrad (Helmholtz Munich).

Boehringer Ingelheim and the Lower Franconian company EMFRET Analytics want to advance an active substance for the treatment of strokes. Its roots lie in the Würzburg University Medicine.

Researchers at the Würzburg site of the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat have successfully transferred the topological quantum Hall and spin Hall effects to a hybrid light–matter system using targeted material design.

The new EU Inc. regulations are intended to make it easier for companies to expand in Europe. Members of the Würzburg Faculty of Law have contributed to this.

Rising temperatures are threatening dung beetle populations in the Amazon. The example shows a trend that could bring many insect species there to their heat threshold. Researchers from Würzburg and Bremen conducted the study.

Quantum repeaters are at the heart of a new research project involving a team from the University of Würzburg. The collaborative project is researching technologies and demonstrators for these building blocks of large-scale quantum networks.

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.

For her pioneering work on catalytic nucleic acids, the Würzburg chemistry professor Claudia Höbartner has been awarded the Albrecht Kossel Prize by the German Chemical Society.

Würzburg University President Paul Pauli is once again one of the ten most popular rectors in Germany. This time he is ranked 9th.
