Find the full article of the Science Slam 2016 of the University of Oldenburg, organized by the Research Center Neurosensory Science in collaboration with the Staatstheater Oldenburg, the Graduate Schools 3GO and Oltech and the Graduate Academy. It was a great evening with science-based entertainment and much anticipated award ceremony.
The prize, donated by the University Society Oldenburg (UGO) and solemnly presented by its advisory board member and director of the University Library Hans-Joachim Waetjen, was won by the PhD student from the Neurosensorics Group Bianca Brüggen (in the middle of the picture).
Large-scale research facilities start operating: new opportunities for research
Psychological and medical research at the university can draw on a new major device: For a study on the impact of chronic pain on the numerical understanding of the first magnetic resonance tomograph (MRI) of the Faculty VI Medicine and Health Sciences is used. This is the second joint project between natural scientists and clinicians within the Research Center for Neurosensory Science.
It is examined whether the structure of the brain changes in chronic pain patients. Do they therefore rate numbers differently - also in relation to one another - than painless patients? So does medicine need to reconsider the numerical scale used to describe one's own level of pain? These questions are examined by the University Clinic for Anesthesiology / Intensive Care Medicine / Emergency Medicine / Pain Therapy of the Klinikum Oldenburg in cooperation with the working group Biological Psychology of the University under the direction of Prof. Dr. med. Christiane Thiel.

What human hearing has in common with that of owls and lizards: sound emitted by the ears Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to inventors of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, Göttingen scientist Prof. Dr. med. Stefan Hell and two American scientists Based on their research results, the so-called high-resolution light microscope (STED microscope) was developed. Since mid-2012, the first commercially available light microscope has been put into operation at the Research Center for Neurosensors.
This year's Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology goes to three neuroscientists: John O'Keefe, a neuroscientist from London, and Norwegian brain researchers May-Britt and Edvard Moser from Trondheim. The three are concerned with the question of how spatial orientation takes place in the brain. The researchers have discovered a kind of "inner GPS system" in the brain - a cell network that allows people to orient themselves in space. Their discovery concerns cells, which form a positioning system in the brain and allow us to find our way around the environment. The highest honor for physicians is endowed with the equivalent of 870,000 euros. | |
