Researchers working with particles and materials made from them have the opportunity to engage in intensive exchange at the annual Particle-Based Materials Conference PBM. This year, the conference was once again held in Erlangen and was organized by the Chair of Interfaces and Particle Technology ...

The Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy at FAU welcomes all Master's students for the winter term 2025/26 and invites all new first-year students of MSc. Chemistry and Molecular Science to the official introductory event on Friday, October 10, 2024. The welcome and information event will take plac...

Whether in self-healing materials, targeted recycling processes, or even the cancer therapies of tomorrow – induction heating, the warming of magnetic materials through alternating magnetic fields, opens up countless possibilities. Until now, however, it was not possible to precisely control which ...

In the future, it may be possible to produce bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals without relying on expensive enzymes or toxic metals as external catalysts. Chemists at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have developed a procedure in which an in situ-formed organoautocatalys...

The team around Prof. Dr. Sjoerd Harder, Chair of Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry at FAU, has been funded with the highest European research grant. With a highly competitive ERC-Advanced Grant of 2,5 Million Euro, the scientific team will investigate how non-noble metals can carry out noble t...

In the new collaborative research center (CRC) 1719 “ChemPrint – the next generation of printed semiconductors: Engineering on the atomic level using molecular surface chemistry”, researchers at FAU are investigating how to improve the manufacturing processes and quality of semiconductors under spec...

As part of the 76th working conference of the Bavarian Regional Association of the Food Chemistry Society (Lebensmittelchemische Gesellschaft), students of the study program Food Chemistry,  doctoral students and researchers in Food Chemistry at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg took...

Effective April 1, 2025, Prof. Dr. Karl Mandel has been appointed by FAU President Prof. Dr.-Ing. Joachim Hornegger to the Chair of Particle-Based Materials Chemistry (PBMC) at our Department. Since 2020, Karl Mandel has held a W2 professorship in Inorganic Chemistry, associated with the chair of Pr...

The German Bunsen Society for Physical Chemistry (DBG) has awarded the 2025 DBG Master’s Award to Mr. Daniel Schauermann. Each year, the society honors outstanding Master’s theses in the field of physical chemistry completed at German universities. Mr. Schauermann conducted his award-winning researc...

Perovskite cells may soon offer an alternative to silicon solar cells. These semiconductors are cheaper to manufacture and feature a high degree of efficiency and a high defect tolerance. This means that defects in the crystal lattice structure barely reduce their performance. One disadvantage, howe...
