Ehrung der SiegerInnen der akademischen Meisterschaften

Leistungsbereitschaft, Leidenschaft und Ausdauer – ganz entscheidende Eigenschaften für Erfolg in der Wissenschaft. Und auch im Sport. Wenn nun beide Bereiche aufeinandertreffen, dann sind sportliche Spitzenleistungen eine logische Folge. Dies haben etwa 1300 Hochschul-SportlerInnen im Studienjahr 2017/2018 auch bewiesen. Die besten 200 standen bei der Siegerehrung der akademischen Meisterschaften in der Aula der Universität Graz am 20. Juni 2018 auf dem Podest und im Rampenlicht.

Die Medaillen und weitere Preise überreichten unter anderem Uni-Graz-Vizerektorin Renate Dworczak, TU-Graz-Vizerektor Detlef Heck, Gemeindeart Kurt Egger, sowie Gert Bernat, Leiter des Universitätssportinstituts (USI). Das USI führte die steirischen Meisterschaften in 30 Sportarten durch, davon sieben Mannschaftsbewerbe. Bernat: „Daran nahmen mehr als 1300 AthletInnen teil, zudem 130 bei nationalen sowie internationalen Wettkämpfen.“ Vizerektorin Dworczak bedankte sich für den Einsatz und gratulierte den SiegerInnen: „Sie sind Vorbilder, die andere für den Sport motivieren.“
Für alle Studierenden, MitarbeiterInnen und Absolventinnen der Universitäten und Hochschulen in Graz bietet das USI pro Jahr 400 Kurse mit etwa 11 500 Plätzen, die, wie Bernat berichtete, zu 96 Prozent ausgelastet sind.

Sportlich werden sich mehr als 2500 Studierende, MitarbeiterInnen und deren Freunde heute, Freitag, 22. Juni 2018, betätigen. Es steht wieder der Kleeblattlauf auf dem Programm – heuer mit einer Premiere: Erstmals in der 34-jährigen Geschichte des Groß-Events gibt es eine geänderte, verkürzte Strecke, da die Waldwege aufgrund der Sturmschäden in der Vorwoche noch gesperrt sind.

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.
