Once again, cfaed is represented at one of the world's largest electronics exhibitions. You'll find us at Hall 6, Booth B24 at a joint booth with the ZIH / TU Dresden. Come by, see our new HAEC Playground demo, as well as a demo from the spin-off "senorics" and a presentation from the computational materials science at DCMS, The Dresden Center for Computational Materials Science. CeBIT - see it!
20 - 24 March 2017, Hannover

The Saxon Minister of Science and Arts, Dr. Eva-Maria Stange, congratulates Prof. Jülicher for being awarded the prestigious Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz-Preis by the German Research Foundation (DFG) for his great accomplishments in the field of theoretical physics. Prof. Jülicher is a director of Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, a participating institution of the Cluster of Excellence cfaed, and acts as a Principal Investigator of the cluster contributing with his scientific work to several Research Paths, in particular the Biological Systems Path. The Leibniz Award is considered the most important scientific honor in Germany.
See the video portrait of Prof. Jülicher made by the DFG here.

Scientists from the Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden / TU Dresden and the University of Tokyo led by Dr. Thorsten-Lars Schmidt (cfaed) developed a method to protect DNA origami structures from decomposition in biological media. This protection enables future applications in nanomedicine or cell biology. Their study “Block Copolymer Micellization as a Protection Strategy for DNA Origami” was now published in Angewandte Chemie.

One of the recent scientific pursuits at the cfaed Chair for Organic Devices (Prof. Stefan Mannsfeld) included a visit of Prof. Mannsfeld, Postdoc Mike Hambsch and PhD student Rishi Shivare to the Synchrotron Light Source (ELETTRA) based in Trieste, Italy. The main motivation to visit such a research facility is the opportunity to work with intensely bright x-ray radiation. The 3-days research stay was used to examine a wide range of organic semiconductors, using wide and small angle x-ray scattering. The molecular and mesoscale structure of molecules was probed and a better understanding of how structural modifications affect device performance (for example in organic field effect transistors and solar cells) could be gained. Doing experiments at a synchrotron is truly a unique experience, it is fascinating to see hundreds of scientists working round the clock.
