A photonic chip that makes it possible to carry out superresolution light microscopy with conventional microscopes

New invention at Bielefeld University and the University of Tromsø (Norway) Physicists at Bielefeld University and tThe Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø have developed a photonic chip that makes it possible to carry out superresolution light microscopy, also called ‘nanoscopy’, with conventional microscopes. In nanoscopy, the position of single fluorescent molecules can be determined

Optical tractor beam holds bacteria for a superresolution closeup

Up to now, if scientists wanted to study blood cells, algae, or bacteria under the microscope, they had to mount these cells on a substrate such as a glass slide. Physicists at Bielefeld and Frankfurt Universities have developed a method that traps biological cells with a laser beam enabling them to study them at very

Robots Might Be Able to Help Germany Integrate Refugee Kids

Can a robot help Germany integrate its influx of migrants? A new research project thinks the answer might be yes. More than 1 million refugees reached Germany last year. Children represent around 25 percent of the refugees and migrants arriving in Europe, according to the International Organization for Migration. That’s where “Nao” comes in. Researchers

New open source software for high resolution microscopy

With their special microscopes, experimental physicists can already observe single molecules. However, unlike conventional light microscopes, the raw image data from some ultra-high resolution instruments first have to be processed for an image to appear. For the ultra-high resolution fluorescence microscopy that is also employed in biophysical research at Bielefeld University, members of the Biomolecular

Carrying a Table Together with a Robot

From a robot’s perspective, humans are normally a nuisance: when robots and humans have to work together, it often leads to problems. Researchers on CogIMon, a new project starting at Bielefeld University, want to teach robots how to interact with humans and work together to accomplish tasks. CogIMon stands for “cognitive compliant interaction in

A robot prepared for self-awareness: Expanded software architecture for walking robot Hector

A year ago, researchers showed that their software endowed the walking robot Hector with a simple form of consciousness. Their new research goes one step further: they have now developed a software architecture that could enable Hector to see himself as others see him. “With this, he would have reflexive consciousness,” explains an expert. The

New production method broadens the perspectives for an improved use of the “magic material” – many different forms are possible

Graphene with aroma Graphene, a crystal composed of only one layer of carbon atoms arranged in a regular hexagon, is regarded as a material which is believed to be capable of performing miracles, in particular in the fields of electronics, sensor technology and display technology, but also in metrology. Only four years after the first

Process devised for ultrathin carbon membranes

Physicists from Bielefeld University have developed a new method of fabrication for ultrathin carbon membranes In the future, carbon nanomembranes are expected to be able to filter out very fine materials. These separating layers are ultrathin, consisting of just one layer of molecules. In the long term, they could allow to separate gases from one

Algae Breaks Down Cellulose: Big Implications for Biofuels

Algae could offer an alternative to the controversial use of land plants in bioenergy production. Astonishing research finding by biologists at Bielefeld University published in the online journal Nature Communications Flowers need water and light to grow. Even children learn that plants use sunlight to gather energy from earth and water. Members of Professor Dr.

Synthetic Biofilter Removes Estrogens and other Medicine Residues from Drinking Water

Enzymes from fungi growing on trees filter out medicine residues from sewage and drinking water Months of painstaking work in the laboratory at Bielefeld University‘s Center for Biotechnology (CeBiTec) have paid off: the 15 students participating in this year’s ‘international Genetically Engineered Machine competition’ (iGEM) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have good reason
