What is remarkable about the researchers' new approach is that the critical steps were found by a computer algorithm. "The algorithm is equipped with the tools that are also available to us researchers in the laboratory. At first, it tries out a few new steps based on known solutions for simpler systems ...

    Alpine glaciers as climate archives: time is running out

    glaciers and where the oldest ice in the Alps can be found. Why are the Alpine glaciers a good climate archive? Pascal Bohleber: The ice cores that we drill out of the Alpine glaciers are the little sisters of the polar ice cores. In the Arctic and Antarctic, we can see far into the past, for example in terms of the changes in greenhouse gases and temperature, because the ice is so old. The time scales are smaller in the Alps, but the drillings are much closer to settlement ...

    Containers What is the focus of your research? Tuset Estany: In Ephesos, I am part of a project named Crossing the Sea . The aim of this project is to study pottery material from Asia Minor in Athens. My small team within this project is responsible for amphorae studies. When we talk about amphorae, we have to forget about the amphora and think about what was inside. What are some of the popular misconceptions about amphorae? Tuset Estany: The most common question regarding ...

Three experiments to clarify the function of the greenstone axes For the first time, axes made of greenstone are being used for the experiments at MAMUZ Schloss Asparn/Zaya. Laura Dietrich: "We know that the greenstone axes were used, but not for what purpose or for how long. It is unclear whether they were only used for special activities, for example in the ritual field, or also for ordinary work. I ...

    they face. Naturally, companies are profit-driven, and that perspective is valid. But we also find they’re thoughtful about broader issues. For example, they may flag regulatory hurdles, like long approval timelines from the FDA or unclear requirements. But they also raise societal concerns—such as whether doctors over-trust AI tools or reject them entirely—both of which can hinder adoption. Of course, companies are profit-oriented. But we are also seeing that they are ...

    different complexes. Complex BAF complex What makes the BAF complex so relevant for human disease are the mutations that are found in the BAF complex genes in approximately every fifth human cancer. Currently, we have only a limited understanding how these mutations contribute to cancer development. Even more problematic, we do not have therapies to specifically cure BAF mutant cancers. Finding such therapies is challenging, because typically the genetic aberrations are so ...
