A new method can measure the electrical (re-)charging of boundary layers between very small, metallic particles and aqueous solutions and understand it at a molecular level.
Eye-tracking systems can support communication with critically ill patients in intensive care units.
Research into promising materials is hampered by the sheer number of possible candidates. A German-Danish team has developed an efficient method to solve this problem.
Application for doctoral position now open.
Catalyst surfaces have rarely been imaged in such detail before. And yet, every single atom can play a decisive role in catalytic activity.
Deceiving yourself is normal and can be useful in the short term. But not in the long term.
Artificial intelligence can imitate people’s voices. Scammers are already taking advantage of this on the phone. A team in Bochum is working on a solution.
A new theory of consciousness provides experimental access to the study of this phenomenon. Not just in humans.
Birds and humans have very different networks of neurons in their brains. Nevertheless, their working memory is limited by similar mechanisms.
