Tiny air particles over Delhi or Cairo absorb more water than previously thought and may therefore cool their regions more strongly. Researchers at Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research (TROPOS) in Leipzig used artificial intelligence to analyze global measurement data and show that climate models for polluted cities need to be improved. | more
Why do we remember some experiences for a lifetime while forgetting others almost immediately? Researchers at the Universität Leipzig have discovered how a single signaling molecule in the brain of the fruit fly helps determine whether an experience is stored as a reward or a punishment.

Huge presses shape metal parts for cars, data centres and hydrogen technologies. However, they are expensive, large and energy-intensive. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology (IWU) in Dresden want to change that. With a smart rolling process and real-time monitoring, manufacturers could reduce costs by up to 70 percent in the future – without compromising quality. | more
Learning happens in milliseconds - far too fast to observe directly. Researchers at Leipzig University have now refined a method that makes exactly this possible. They freeze nerve cells at lightning speed and can thus see how they transmit signals. The technique works in both mice and humans and could help to better understand diseases and ageing processes in the brain in the future. | more
