Obligation to wear a medical mask
The obligation to wear at least one medical mask continues to apply in teaching and examination events, in public areas and in general circulation areas (corridors, foyers, toilets, elevators, etc.).
Wearing masks not only serves to protect employees and students, but is also done out of consideration for those among them whose health and well-being are particularly dependent on mindful interaction.
Observance of the AHA+A+L formula (distance, hygiene, daily routine with mask, app, ventilation) continues to make sense. Even though many guidelines (e.g. walking direction in stairwells/corridors, use of elevators) have now been dropped, we rely on all university employees to act on their own responsibility.

When the Earth gets between the Sun and the Moon, spectacular images are created here. Astrophysicist Dr. Jonathan Kollmer explains in the video why we talk about the blood moon and why we have to wait a little longer in Central Europe.

11.05.2022 Success for the UDE - DFG funds two new research training groups
Materials science and medicine at UDE can further expand their research. The German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding two new Research Training Groups with a total of around 14 million euros for the next five years. The research subjects are the properties and production of two-dimensional materials and the effectiveness of radiation treatment for cancer.

10.05.2022 zdi-robot competition
zdi - The joint initiative for the next generation of MINT students in NRW
RE-use RE-duce RE-cycle: These are the keywords to which pupils have programmed their robots for the circular economy - the PascalBots team from the Pascal Gymnasium in Grevenbroich won the local competition in Duisburg on 4 May 2022. With a very confident run, the 3 pupils beat the team J.-K.-Robots from Schwalmtal. Third place went to the girls' team Marienberg from Neuss - who were particularly enthusiastic about their success - photo opposite.

Childcare room
The Faculty of Physics offers emergency child care for all faculty members and all CENIDE-members. If the regular daycare is closed, for instance, due to a strike or illness, care can be arranged in the childcare room. It is, however, not intended for foreseeable events such as holiday care or the like.
