The environment of retinal nerve cells plays a crucial role in the processing of visual signals.
Researchers have identified genetic traces of hepatitis E viruses in almost 73 percent of wastewater samples from North-Rhine Westphalia. Findings on drug-resistant variants are of particular value.
A combination therapy with multiple drugs is more effective than just one active compound. To begin with, at least.
You won’t find another place that makes it as easy to compare yourself with others as social media. That’s not good for you.
A simple blood test could perform better than a complex test thanks to mathematical modeling.
Johannes Karges develops anti-cancer agents that work in a targeted manner, rather than adversely affecting the entire body.
CO2 is an important source of information for insects. And the receptors that help them to detect it might also be useful for completely different applications.
It has long been assumed that it is necessary to use different exposure therapies to treat different fears. A new study from Bochum challenges this view.
Researchers are constantly pushing the limits of technology by breaking new ground in CO2 conversion. Their goal is to turn the harmful greenhouse gas into a valuable resource.
Researchers have identified a mechanism that promotes the breakdown of harmful protein deposits. If it malfunctions, it can lead to Parkinson’s disease.
Are you feeling permanently stressed and overworked? It could be due to your social media consumption. Reducing it by as little as 30 minutes a day makes a difference.
Simon Schröder has worked out how enzymes can be used to more easily form the desired bond between two nitrogen atoms.
Jackdaws improve their memory performance by classifying continuous stimuli into categories. The so-called attractor dynamics provide new insights into the functioning of the brain.
Neutron stars may be much heavier than predicted by theory. This is possibly due to hyperons, i.e. poorly understood elementary particles. John Bulava aims at reconciling theory and experiment with new simulations.
It’s quite obvious that they are involved. The latest findings show one possible way.
When it comes to self-discipline, psychological research traditionally focuses on individual responsibility. Wilhelm Hofmann believes this is too short-sighted. Self-discipline doesn’t work without effective regulation.
Formaldehyde can inhibit enzymes that produce hydrogen particularly efficiently. Researchers from Bochum have discovered how this can be prevented.
A heat shock protein protects the cells against protein clumping. It degrades, however, over longer treatment periods.
Astrophysicist Dr Elisa Pueschel wants to penetrate a still unexplored mass range of dark matter particles.
Improving safety and durability of batteries requires a better understanding of processes that take place inside them at the atomic level. Tong Li intends to lay the foundations for this as part of a Consolidator Grant.
