A survey conducted at the University of Konstanz and the Taras Shevchenko University of Kyiv sheds light on students' perceptions of the war in Ukraine: a comparison of fears as well as attitudes toward authority, military aid and membership of Ukraine in NATO.
Biologist Alona Prylutska and her colleagues from the “Ukrainian Bat Rehabilitation Center” in Kharkiv work hard every day to save bats. The war is making their work difficult – but they are keeping it up nevertheless. Since November 2022, Alona Prylutska has been continuing her work from Germany, within a research project at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior.
A comparative study conducted at the University of Konstanz of over a thousand bird species comes to the conclusion: the key factor that matters for brain size is parental care.
In research on quantum computers, one aspect that has been mostly neglected until now is the generation of heat. Physicists from Konstanz, Grenoble and Helsinki now focus their attention on heat as an interference factor – and have developed a method to experimentally measure the heat generated by a superconducting quantum system.
Is the core of an animal or plant population always found in the center of its range, as a classic ecological model predicts? In most cases, but not always. Luckily, exceptions from the model are easy to predict, according to the findings of an international research team involving ecologist Trevor Fristoe from the University of Konstanz.
