Carina's and Gudrun’s recent article has been featured on the cover of Advanced Materials Interfaces! In this paper, we demonstrate how to enhance optical effects by integrating Polydopamine (PDA), a synthetic melanin, into photonic crystals. PDA is incorporated in two ways: by gradually increasing ...
The goal was clear. The new PhD-students should really grasp the idea behind the Collaborative Research Center 1411 (CRC 1411); understand the structure, the background and the last and upcoming funding period. In addition, everyone should get to know their colleagues, in order to put faces to anony...
On April 15th Niki presented how structural color works at the science slam »Um uns die Nature« jointly organized by the Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung and the Frankfurter Museums-Gesellschaft e.V. at the Opera house in Frankfurt and was awarded the second Prize for his presentation. Du...
The conference "Women in Optimization 2024" at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) was held from April 10 - 12th, 2024, as the fifth meeting in this series. About 70 female researchers from both industry and academia, doctoral candidates, and students in mathematical optimization...
The Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1411 – “Design of particulate products” invites applications for an Equal Opportunity Fellowship. Eligible are international female applicants to one of the involved study programs at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg, that have been adm...
Our Bachelor Student Sonja Schaller was awarded the first prize for her poster "Determining the Organization of Binary Colloidal Supraparticles by matters of Diffusiophoresis and Channel Formation” at the Spray Drying Symposium taking place in Würzburg on 09.04.2024. We are very proud of her achieve...
At a DECHEMA/VDI conference in February 2024, CRC 1411's research was prominently featured, with Nabi Traoré (Project A01) and Lukas Hartmann (Project B04) receiving awards for their presentations. Their contributions highlight CRC 1411's impactful role in advancing particulate systems research.
Update (March 2024): We still have a couple of open positions in the following areas:
- Synthesis of hierarchical porous materials for nanoparticle chromatography Supervisor: Prof. Nicolas Vogel
- Multidimensional characterization of nanoparticle ensembles Supervisor: Dr. Johannes Walter
Karl Mandel got the great news that he will receive an ERC Consolidator Grant. His project aims at turning matter perceptual using “SmartRust”. This endeavor will be funded with 2 Mio. € for the upcoming 5 years.
We are happy to announce that our CRC1411 will receive fundings to continue its research for the next 4 years. After a successful first funding period under the guidance of Prof. Wolfgang Peukert, we will continue our activities with Prof. Nicolas Vogel as spokesperson, and Prof. Martin Hartmann wil...
