Das ProfessorInnen-Team holte sich beim 5. Brain Game den Sieg

Knifflige Fragen für kluge Köpfe: Brain Game, das Wissensquiz der Uni Graz, präsentiert von der Bank Austria, sorgte am 22. März 2017 für Spannung, unterhaltsame Wissenschaft und eine bis auf den letzten Platz gefüllte Aula. Sechs Studierende trafen bei der mittlerweile fünften Ausgabe wieder auf sechs ProfessorInnen. Hatten bislang drei Mal die Studierenden die Nase vorn, eroberten heuer das ProfessorInnen-Team mit Monika Oberer (NAWI), Isabelle Jonveaux (Theologie), Ulrich Pferschy (SOWI), Oliver Sass (URBI), Romedio Schmitz-Esser (GEWI) und Bernd Wieser (REWI) die „Brain Game“-Krone.

Wann trifft im Verfahrensrecht ein italienscher Torpedo? Wie sieht ein Litschibaum aus? Wie viele Sportkurse bietet das USI an? Auf diese und viele weitere Fragen galt es richtig zu beantworten und Punkte zu sammeln. Vizerektor Martin Polaschek sorgte für einen fairen Wettstreit, ORF-Moderatorin Eva Pölzl für eine mitreißende und wissensreiche Veranstaltung unter der Spielleitung von Andrea Penz.

Lagen vor der Finalrunde noch die Studierenden Katharina Grager (Theologie), Franziska Häller (GEWI), Sarah Unterweger (SOWI), Michael Vogrin (NAWI), Julian Stefan Schnur (REWI) und Christian Schöggl (URBI) voran, konnten die WissenschafterInnen schließlich dank einer mitreißenden Aufholjagd das Spiel für sich entscheiden.

„Brain Game“ ist Teil der 7. fakultät, des Zentrums für Gesellschaft, Wissen und Kommunikation.

Baby health: University of Graz is seeking study participants to investigate early risk factors

Why does the body composition of babies vary so much? Some children gain a significant amount of fat mass within a few weeks, whilst others show hardly any change over the same period. “At the same time, initial observations suggest that fat distribution in all babies may follow a similar pattern, regardless of their total body fat,” explains Marco Höfler from the Institute of Movement Sciences, Sport and Health at the University of Graz. He is coordinating the research project ‘Small Bodies – Big Questions’, for which participants are currently still being sought: pregnant women and babies up to four weeks old.

In hot water: New Report reveals record losses in glaciers, permafrost and snow cover

Climate change is driving up temperatures not only in summer. Winters are also getting warmer – with dramatic consequences for glaciers, permafrost, snow cover and the freezing of lakes. The recently published cryosphere report provides specific figures for Austria. “Our monitoring shows a clear trend with record losses of ice and snow,” says project leader Wolfgang Schöner from the University of Graz.

Theologian at the University of Graz: What the excommunication of the Society of St Pius X

Following the schism involving the Society of St Pius X, there is a need for discussion. Bernd Hillebrand from the University of Graz explains why the Vatican took this step, what role anti-democratic tendencies play, and why the Society’s sacraments are no longer recognised as valid under canon law for Catholics with immediate effect.

“HeinrichBiCool”: University of Graz demonstrates the effects of green facades and roofs

The University of Graz has launched a pioneering project at the University Centre for Theology. Its name, “HeinrichBiCool”, says it all: a comprehensive system of green facades and roof will cool the building at Heinrichstraße 80 during the summer. At the same time, this will create a new habitat for plants and animals, helping to increase biodiversity. The accompanying monitoring programme will provide detailed data on the impact of the measures on indoor climate, energy consumption and biodiversity. The findings will lay a scientifically sound foundation for further projects aimed at making cities sustainable, climate-resilient and liveable. The partners in this project, funded by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), are AEE INTEC – Institute for Sustainable Technologies, Technisches Büro Siegfried Stark, the landscape architecture and urban planning firm “studio boden”, and Ökoteam Graz.
