Medical Practice Around the WorldDoctors in Beijing and Würzburg Ask the Same Questions
Whether in Beijing, Ankara, Groningen or Würzburg, doctors treat patients with heart failure in remarkably similar ways. Even their questions and gestures are alike. A UDE study shows why these findings also matter for the recognition of foreign medical qualifications.
UDE Students Develop Innovative BiosensorKeeping Track of Metabolism – Without Drawing Blood
Where the body speaks and technology listens: Two UDE students are developing VitaMetis, a wearable biosensor designed to monitor metabolic markers through sweat – without drawing blood. In mid-November, they hope to win the COSIMA competition in Munich.
Ultrafast Demagnetisation Thinner Iron, Stronger Effect
The thinner an iron film, the more easily it can be demagnetised by a laser pulse. The key lies in the magnetic order at the material's interfaces. In the long term, these findings could contribute to the development of new technologies for magnetic data storage.
