Am 2. Juli 2017 wird die zwölfte Graz International Summer School Seggau eröffnet

Die Graz International Summer School Seggau 2017, kurz GUSEGG, findet bereits zum 12. Mal im Schloss Seggau in Leibnitz statt – diesmal unter dem Titel „Radical Definitions: State – Society - Religion“. 58 Studierende aus mehr 30 Ländern kommen dieses Mal in die Steiermark, um gemeinsam zu lernen und über Chancen und Perspektiven für eine vitale Gesellschaft zu diskutieren. Am 2. Juli eröffnen Rektorin Christa Neuper, Michael Kuhn, stellvertretender Generalsekretär der Comece (Kommission der Bischofskonferenzen der EU), und Bischof Wilhelm Krautwaschl die beliebte, vierzehntägige Sommerschule.


Auch heuer wird es wieder einen „Alumni-Tag“ geben: Am Mittwoch, 5. Juli, geht es in diesem Rahmen vor allem um die Frage nach den Aufgaben von Kirche und Wissenschaft. Es diskutieren Prof. Mark Bernheim (Miami University Ohio), Christian Cwik (University of the West Indies) und der Historiker Florian Traussnig. Am „Alumni-Tag“ findet auch eine Podiumsdiskussion statt, an der Bischof Wilhelm Krautwaschl, Ao.Univ.-Prof. Dr. Roberta Maierhofer, akademische Leiterin der Sommerschule, Univ.-Prof. Dr. Lukas Meyer, Dekan der Geisteswissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität Graz, und Daniel Mattern, Diplomat an der österreichischen Botschaft der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika, teilnehmen werden. Die Kooperation mit dem AbsolventInnen-Netzwerk der Uni Graz besteht seit drei Jahren. Ziel ist es, Gespräche über Generationen hinweg nachhaltig zu ermöglichen.

Anmeldung zu diesem öffentlichen Event bitte unter gusegg(at)uni-graz.at.

Jurassic Sounds: Biologist reconstructs insect songs from 165 million years ago

It was apparently not just the roars of the dinosaurs that made up the soundscape of the animal world during the Jurassic period. Crickets and grasshoppers communicated through a variety of songs and high-pitched sounds, as Thorin Jonsson from the Institute of Biology at the University of Graz discovered together with colleagues from the universities of Lincoln, Bristol (UK), Beijing (China) and Tempe (USA). The findings on what are so far the oldest traces of sound on Earth have just been published in the journal PNAS.

EU funding boosts international exchange between universities

The University of Graz is further expanding its international study opportunities through the European university alliance Arqus and is taking the lead in two key projects. In future, students will benefit from even more joint degree programmes and from simplified recognition of academic achievements through the Joint European Degree Label.

Rescue and risks: Researchers have surveyed public perceptions of AI

The use of artificial intelligence has had to be made transparent since 2 August 2026. The EU’s AI Act, which has been in force since then, also sets out how risky an application is and which security measures apply as a result. However, the assessment of risks by the legislation differs in some cases significantly from the perceptions of the Austrian public. This is the finding of a representative study carried out by data scientist Stefan Thalmann from the University of Graz and his team.

The Healing Sea: Researchers discover new approaches to treating chronic inflammation in sponges

Chronic inflammation plays a key role in many diseases, ranging from metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases to tissue damage following injuries or infections. “Normally, the body is able to resolve inflammation on its own. If this process becomes unbalanced, immune cells remain permanently active and continue to drive negative changes in the tissue,” explains Andreas Koeberle, a pharmacist at the University of Graz.
