We learned what the changeover actually means for the teaching staff in a meeting with Professor <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/praesenzlehre-ist-wie-ein-livekonzert-in-der-musik\/\">Georg Ostermeyer<\/a>, Dean of Studies of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba On the hunt for the Covid-19 antiviral agent<\/h3>\n<p>The team at the <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/auf-der-jagd-nach-dem-covid-19-wirkstoff\/\">Institute of Biochemistry, Biotechnology and Bioinformatics<\/a> is working hard to find suitable antibodies against the virus. In order to provide financial support, Bj\u00f6rn Th\u00fcmler, the Minister of Science and Culture of Lower Saxony, has overcome bureaucratic hurdles.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba Those who purchase like hamsters<\/h3>\n<p>Why is it so difficult for us to be alone for long periods of time? And where do the hoarding come from? In an interview, Professor <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/von-hamsterkaeufen-und-sozialer-distanzierung\/\">Beate Muschalla<\/a> explains the psychological consequences of the Corona crisis<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba Full garbage cans<\/h3>\n<p>The more people are at home, the more waste piles up in front of the house. On top of this there is separate waste disposal for infected people. Professor <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/volle-tonnen\/\">Klaus Fricke<\/a> from the Waste and Resource Management Department of the Leichtwei\u00df Institute for Hydraulic Engineering explains the new challenges.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba Electrified agriculture and lettuce on recycled wastewater<\/h3>\n<p>What will change when agricultural machinery is completely converted to electric drives? This is the subject of research by an <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/pi-post\/ackerbau-mit-neuen-antrieben\/\">extraordinary group<\/a> of institutes at the TU and HBK Braunschweig. The <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/pi-post\/wassersparende-lebensmittelproduktion\/\">Hypo-Wave project<\/a>, on the other hand, is running completely independently of the arable land. The novel irrigation technology relies fully on treated wastewater.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba When the battery goes dead<\/h3>\n<p>A battery diagnosis line is being built at the <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/pi-post\/wenn-die-batterie-schlapp-macht\/\">Battery LabFactory Braunschweig<\/a> (BLB). This new laboratory unit will investigate how battery cells age and how they remain fit for longer.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba Via bicycle corpses towards sustainable mobility<\/h3>\n<p>The TU Braunschweig is creating more space for bicycles with a <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/gas-geben-fuer-den-fahrradverkehr\/\">three-stage plan<\/a>. Starting on April 20, broken bicycles will be marked and removed after one month.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba Our favourite(s) of the week<\/h3>\n<p>&#8230; are six computer science students at the TU Braunschweig. They took part in the Hackathon #WirVsVirus of the German government and worked on a <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/coronavirus-symptome-per-app-erfassen\/\">symptom tracker<\/a>. The app is supposed to digitally record the symptoms of Covid-19&#8217;s disease.<\/p>\n<h3>\u25ba This last post<\/h3>\n<p>&#8230; to be honest, was not easy for us to write. Six professors retired on 31 March. The &#8220;outstanding European physicist&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professorin-gertrud-zwicknagl\/\">Gertrud Zwicknagl<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professorin-christel-mueller-goymann\/\">Christel M\u00fcller-Goymann<\/a>, with whom an &#8220;era&#8221; in pharmacy ends (and who was also a member of the university council), the &#8220;renowned Heinrich-Heine-Researcher&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professorin-renate-stauf\/\">Renate Stauf<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professor-karl-heinz-glassmeier\/\">Karl-Heinz Gla\u00dfmeier<\/a>, whose magnetometers are represented on all renowned space missions and who has brought worldwide fame to our university not only with the &#8220;alien-like sounding&#8221; of the Rosetta magnetic field. <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professorin-petra-mischnick\/\">Petra Mischnick<\/a> is also an extraordinary scientist, science communicator and inspiring personality. And then there is <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/m-post\/zum-abschied-von-professor-ulrich-reimers\/\">Ulrich Reimers<\/a>. Vice President, father of digital television and media studies at the TU Braunschweig. He has done us a great deal of work with his countless awards. Read the laudationes, it&#8217;s worth it. We would miss them all very much. And so that it doesn&#8217;t come to that, we don&#8217;t say farewell but see you soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Topics: Summer semester + Covid-19 antiviral agent + hoarding + &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-36582","kb_magazin","type-kb_magazin","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","kb_cat_magazin-campus-life","kb_tags-the-week"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
