- Taiga Forests Protect Permafrost Soils
From Alaska to Siberia, canopies of boreal forests shield the frozen ground from deeper thawing. This keeps the carbon stored in permafrost locked away and thus protects our climate. The boreal ...
- New method for the mechanical formation of three-dimensional molecular structures
Threads or ropes can easily be used for braiding, knotting, and weaving. In chemistry, however, processing molecular strands in this way is an almost impossible task. This is because molecules are ...
- Complex processes in photosynthesis decoded with electron microscopy
Using cryo-electron microscopy a team of scientists from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (HU), the Swedish universities of Umeå and Uppsala and the University of Potsdam has succeeded in visualising... - Decisive breakthrough: Foundations for sustainable battery technology
Electric vehicles and portable electronic devices such as laptops and mobile phones are unthinkable without lithium-ion batteries. The problem: highly toxic materials such as cobalt are often used ... - Redesigned phenoxyl radicals with improved oxidation capacity
Nature uses enzymes for various metabolic processes. These biological catalysts are extremely efficient. Biomimetic catalysts based on inexpensive starting materials from the laboratory that can re...
- Harvesting more solar energy with supercrystals
Hydrogen is a building block for the energy transition. To obtain it with the help of solar energy, LMU researchers have developed new high-performance nanostructures. The material holds a world re... - Reimagining smartphones: Modular mobile devices against the flood of electronic waste
One cannot imagine modern life without smartphones. These small electronic helpers make our lives easier and better. But they also do real ecological damage. How can the production and use of smart...
- Atomic structures of proteins elucidated
The more we know about the agents that cause disease, the more specifically we will be able to combat them. These are the words of Prof. Adam Lange of the Leibniz-Institut für Molekulare Pharmakolo...
