Oil, gas, precious metals – raw materials are a key part of the global economy. However, human rights violations often occur in the countries that extract them. We asked Prof. Dr. Markus Krajewski how this problem can be resolved.
Researchers at FAU are working on a way to develop custom-fit prosthetics, with the help of 3D scanning and printing, which is simple and inexpensive, yet can be done locally using recycled materials.
Viral infections may be involved in the pathogenesis of the lupus autoimmune disease. Researchers have discovered that messenger substances of the immune system trigger the disease when their production is not lowered after recovery from viral infection.
Over the next three years, researchers at FAU will build the PEER Lab technology and transfer centre in which high-performance electronic modules are developed, optimised and tested for their reliability.
