DFKI and University of Duisburg-Essen test fine motor skills in weightlessness. Fine motor tasks under space conditions are particularly challenging and must first be trained on Earth. Scientists from the…
It’s still just a plan, but a new telescope could soon be measuring gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are something like the sound waves of the universe. They are created, for…
Researchers demonstrate a programmable approach to fabricating optical qubits in silicon for large-scale manufacturing. Quantum computers have the potential to solve complex problems in human health, drug discovery, and artificial…
The ocean floor tells us stories from times long past which are most relevant for the future – those about global warming and changes in environmental conditions. With the help…
HZI researchers have identified two mechanisms through which Klebsiella bacteria combat the spread of salmonella in the gut. The microbiome, the microorganisms that populate our intestines and aid in digestion,…
Researchers have for the first time demonstrated that a specific class of oxide membranes can confine, or “squeeze,” infrared light – a finding that holds promise for next generation infrared…
