A Dresden musician makes audible what quantum researchers are working on. Konrad Kuechenmeister has recorded the noises from laboratories at TU Dresden and the University of Würzburg and mixed them into a soundtrack. The loop music accompanies the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat into a new phase. With a focus on dynamics, 300 scientists want to develop quantum materials for green technologies and quantum computers. | more
Every human being begins as a single cell. Researchers at TU Dresden have now deciphered how this becomes a complete organism. Their discovery: the first cell divisions function through controlled chaos. Thread-like structures called microtubules divide the cell material - although they are actually unstable. The study published in Nature also shows why different animal species use different developmental strategies. | more

Diamonds with flaws as a tool for science: the new professor Aparajita Singha at TU Dresden uses special diamond sensors to measure magnetic signals from individual atoms. Her ambitious goal for the next five years is to carry out these measurements at room temperature - something that no one else in the world has yet managed to do. Her research in the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat is an important basis for future quantum computers and strengthens Saxony's position in quantum technology. | more
