A team of scientists from the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy, in collaboration with colleagues from Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, have made a significant advance in understanding future hydrogen storage technology. Their latest research, published in the ACS Energy Letters, rev...

Emperor penguins are an endangered species. Scientists are protecting the largest of all penguins by monitoring their numbers precisely and investigating which factors affect their population. A team led by researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) has now developed a re...

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has named a lecture hall after her. Here in Germany, hardly anyone knows her name. And yet she could be a real inspiration for young women in science: Dixie Lee Bryant, the daughter of a businessman from Kentucky, USA, studied at MIT before becoming th...
