moreA team led by researcher Chase Beisel at the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI) in Würzburg conducted the first systematic study of CRISPR-based antibiotics in Klebsiella pneumoniae.
moreThe award-winning Kitty Q app can now be experienced as an escape room. Today the Dresden-Würzburg Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat hosted the opening ceremony at Technische Sammlungen Dresden.
moreMental disorders are widespread in Germany. The German Center for Prevention Research in Mental Health is working to reduce their prevalence. The center has now been officially opened.
moreProfessor Isabel Roditi has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant to further strengthen her outstanding research into the pathogen that causes sleeping sickness. She intends to carry out her research in Würzburg.
moreA research project at the University of Würzburg (JMU) has received 137,000 euros in federal funding. The project will develop an AI early warning system to prevent errors in the development of new software.
moreIn their natural environment, wild bees are exposed to various pesticides that can have a potentially toxic effect. A study by the University of Würzburg has now shown that bumblebees are relatively resistant to these products.
moreResearchers at the University of Würzburg have developed a method that can improve the performance of quantum resistance standards. It´s based on a quantum phenomenon called Quantum Anomalous Hall effect.
moreProfessor Bernhard Nieswandt is investigating a cellular mechanism in blood platelets that appears to play a crucial role in inflammatory diseases. He has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant for his work.
moreThe transition from the esophagus to the stomach is a delicate region from a medical point of view, often associated with pathological disorders leading to cancer. An international research team has now gained new insights into this region. These pave the way for new prevention and treatment options.
moreWürzburg-based physical chemist Tobias Brixner has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant for his pioneering work on multiple electronic excitations. He already received an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2013.
moreWürzburg physicists of the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat have discovered that quantum entanglement toughens up quasiparticles against impurity scattering – even when they are subject to strong disorder.
moreAn international team including researchers from the University of Würzburg has succeeded in creating a special state of superconductivity. This discovery could advance the development of quantum computers.
moreHIRI scientists have identified a small RNA that influences the sensitivity of the intestinal commensal Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron to certain antibiotics.
moreExperimental and theoretical physicists from the Würzburg Institute for Topological Insulators observed a re-entrant quantum Hall effect in a mercury telluride device and identify it as a signature of parity anomaly.
