Using a novel research method, Bochum-based research team identifies universal principles in categorisation learning.
Hepatitis E virus defies alcohol-based hand disinfectants.
What a toy: a tiny gyroscope that would fit in a human cell and that can be controlled from the outside.
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.
A new theory of consciousness provides experimental access to the study of this phenomenon. Not just in humans.
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.
Birds and humans have very different networks of neurons in their brains. Nevertheless, their working memory is limited by similar mechanisms.
A team of psychologists has analysed studies from over 40 years.
The answer varies from country to country.
The recently discovered seismic events are slower than conventional earthquakes. Their existence supports a scientific theory that until now had not been sufficiently substantiated by measurements.
Using so-called XS-Leaks, personal data can be accessed on the web. Many browsers are affected.
Bacteria can help clean the groundwater. The choice of the right food for them is determined by the temperature.
The bacterium is resistant to all antibiotics on the market. Therefore, there is a great need for new therapeutic approaches. In order to find them, it helps to understand how the germ reacts to active substances.
Researchers have managed to address an unusual energy transition in a semiconductor.
When charged particles enter the boundary layer between a liquid and an electrode, they first have to strip off their water shells.
