Research Center Dynamic Systems (CDS)

CDS member Dr.-Ing. Nicole Vorhauer-Huget from the Institute of Process and Systems Engineering at the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg and her research group focus on making energy-intensive production processes more efficient and environmentally friendly, significantly reducing the enormous consumption of fossil fuels and the associated CO2 emissions.

CDS member Prof. Dr. Inna Lavrik was able to achieve impressive research results on the molecular mechanism of programmed cell death with her research group "Translational Inflammation Research" at the Medical Faculty of the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg. The results were now published in the internationally acclaimed EMBO Journal.

The team led by CDS member Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. Dieter Schinzer from the Institute of Chemistry of the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg have succeeded for the first time in synthetically recreating the naturally occurring active ingredient disorazol Z1 using a highly efficient process. It is the the world's first total synthesis of this highly active natural compound.

New insights about the energy efficiency of pulsed electrolyses emerged from a cooperation of SmartProSys researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems Magdeburg with experts from the Chair of Power Electronics and the Institute of Control Theory of the TU Dresden.
