Under extreme environmental conditions such as heat, drought, or high salt concentrations, organisms switch to stress mode to protect themselves. Similar reaction routines occur within the cells of fungi, plants, animals, and humans. But what fundamental principles underlie these processes, and what…

With the InnoVET project BM=X³ funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, training and further education in micro- and nanotechnology (MNT) are being elevated to a new level. BM=X³ stands for vocational education in micro- and nanotechnology through excellent careers, excellent lear…

Fluid should flow resistance-free through narrow pipes, such as in production facilities. This is usually achieved through applied coatings. A research team at the Technical University of Kaiserslautern (TUK) is now rethinking the flow behavior: The starting point is an additional, internally locate…

The "Cleanroom Technology" internship in the 4th semester of the degree programs in Pharmaceutical Technology and Food, Nutrition, Hygiene (Elective Focus: Hygiene) currently includes experiments on topics such as cleanroom hygiene and clothing, as well as measurements related to cleanroom technolog…

Are algae the superfood and active ingredient suppliers of the future? Under the direction of Professor Carola Griehl, researchers at the Competence Center Algal Biotechnology at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences have been working on this question for many years. On May 27, 2021 the Anhalt Unive…

To advance digitalization, the next generation of mobile communication standards, 6G, is indispensable. The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is funding a consortium with 17 partners ("Open6GHub") that is working on 6G standards and processes. Over the next four years, it will provid…
