Unite! has now available a series of online workshops to the entire academic community in order to reduce the barriers to human resources motivation, equality, career progress, and reward

These workshops are based on an analysis of best practices and existing policies for Human Resources Strategies for Researchers (HRS4R) in research and academia, policies and measures to eliminate brain drain and to strengthen knowledge circulation, barriers to equal inclusion and effective strategies to attract, assess and reward researchers.

EU fördert internationales Projekt GreenChips-EDU

Die TU Darmstadt ist mit weiteren 14 Hochschulen, Unternehmen und Forschungseinrichtungen unter Leitung der TU Graz am internationalen Forschungsprojekt „GreenChips-EDU“ beteiligt.

ERC funds “CultCryo” project with Synergy Grant of around 9.9 million euros

The European Research Council (ERC) has awarded TU Darmstadt as host institution a Synergy Grant for the “CultCryo – The Cultures of the Cryosphere” project. The requested funding amounts to around 9.9 million euros, and the corresponding Principal Investigator is Dr. Alexander Friedrich. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive analytical view on global artificial cooling.

ERC Synergy Grant 2023 for HYROPE – Hydrogen under pressure

HYROPE – Hydrogen under pressure, the project in which Professor Andreas Dreizler of the Institute of Reactive Flows and Diagnostics in the Department of Mechanical Engineering is involved, has been awarded more than twelve million euros in funding as part of the ERC Synergy Grant. The aim of the project is to develop gas turbines that do not emit the greenhouse gas CO2.

Amazon supports TU Darmstadt's research in machine learning

A team from TU Darmstadt has received funding from Amazon to support research in machine learning. It is the second research funding award from the U.S. company to go to TU Darmstadt in two years. The team will collaborate with AI researchers from Amazon Alexa in Berlin as part of the research.

Notice Board of IRIS promotes research within Unite!

Within the framework of the UNITE.H2020 project, the IRIS network (Integrated Research and Innovation Services) has developed a Notice Board to promote collaboration and ease matchmaking between Unite! researchers.

TU Darmstadt Research Fellowship for Professor Jeffrey Bergthorson

Professor Jeffrey Bergthorson, a world-renowned expert and pioneer in the field of alternative, metallic energy sources, has been awarded a TU Darmstadt Research Fellowship.

Statement of the Technical University of Darmstadt

The TU Darmstadt is deeply shocked by the terrorist attacks on Israel. We mourn the victims and feel for the relatives and friends. Our thoughts are with all the people in Israel who have been affected by the horrific attacks.

TU Graduate School Life Science Engineering receives EU funding

Excellent research at the interface between engineering and life sciences: 15 interdisciplinary international doctoral students are to receive top-level training at TU Darmstadt as part of a newly approved programme. This will support and expand the range of courses offered by the Graduate School Life Science Engineering.

TU computer scientists create standardised framework for developing and validating clinical AI solutions

Doctors often rely on imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT) for a quick and correct diagnosis. For some time now, they have been supported in the analysis of CT scans by artificial intelligence (AI). This can be trained, for example, to segment different types of tissue in the image file, i.e. to distinguish them precisely from one another and to mark them in colour. Computer scientists at TU Darmstadt want to accelerate the further development of these AI solutions in the hospital environment in a unique interdisciplinary project.

Researchers from TU Darmstadt and ESA present a new method

More and more artificial objects are orbiting the Earth. Apart from satellites essential for communication, research, or navigation, most others are unwelcome and pose an operational risk because they increase the probability of collisions. Preventing these requires efficient algorithms to identify objects that are getting dangerously close to each other, researchers at TU Darmstadt and the European Space Agency (ESA) now present two new approaches.

Portrait of TU alumna Doris Krumpholz

Doris Krumpholz realised already during her very first internship lesson in front of a class that she was in the right place. The alumna is a passionate teacher, and after nearly four decades, she is back at her old school, the catholic Edith-Stein-Schule – now in the role of Headmistress. Back at TU Darmstadt, Krumpholz, now 51, studied chemistry and biology. With lots of enthusiasm, because she felt in the right place back then, too.

TU Darmstadt inaugurates Lichtenberg II high-performance computer

Today, the TU Darmstadt officially inaugurated the new Lichtenberg II high-performance computer. Equipped with the latest technology, it sets standards in performance and energy efficiency and thus offers the best conditions for excellent research. Lichtenberg II is also part of the Network for National High Performance Computing (NHR) and supports the nationwide provision of computing power for science in a particularly sustainable and resource-efficient way. The computer is named after the polymath Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742-1799).
