The German Research Foundation decided to extend funding the German-Chinese collaborative research project TRR 61 for a 2nd period (2012 - 2016). Our group will contribute with a new project in collaboration with Cristian A. Strassert‘s group.

Judith Niedenführ has joined the group as a PhD student.

The collaborative research consortium TRR 61 has been reviewed by an international panel. We have also applied for a project and are looking forward to the final decision.

Tatjana Walth has submitted her Diploma thesis.

Today CeNTech II was officially dedicated. Offering one of the first running laboratories, we had some prominent visitors and received appearance in public TV news (WDR Lokalzeit and wm.tv, German only).

We have just moved our lab to the new CeNTech II building. With a bit of luck, we‘ll be back in business before Christmas.

Manuel Steinbrecher joined the group as a Master student.

We are in the process of moving our website to the WWU webserver. Please update your link:
