Konfuzius-Institut lud zum China-Abend

Fünfzig Jahre diplomatische Beziehungen zwischen Österreich und dem Reich der Mitte standen im Fokus des jüngsten China-Abends am 5. November 2021 in der Aula der Universität Graz. Dazu eingeladen hatte das Konfuzius-Institut, das sich seit 2010 als Plattform für die Förderung von chinesisch-steirischen Kooperationen in den Bereichen Kultur, Wirtschaft und Technologie versteht. Die Veranstaltungsreihe der China-Abende bietet besondere Gelegenheiten für Kommunikation und Vernetzung.

Nach Rektor Martin Polaschek begrüßten VertreterInnen der Politik, Wirtschaftskammer-Steiermark Direktor Karl-Heinz Dernoscheg sowie der Botschafter der Volksrepublik China Xiaosi Li und der General Manager der Bank of China Vienna Branch Jiandong Xu die Gäste zur Feier des Jubiläums.
Die kürzlich gegründete „Global Young Leaders Union“ bildete einen weiteren Programmschwerpunkt. Initiiert von Wan Jie Chen, Direktor des Konfuzius-Instituts an der Uni Graz, will das internationale Netzwerk junger Führungskräfte den globalen Austausch und eine nachhaltige Entwicklung insbesondere in den Bereichen Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft und Technologie, Bildung und Kultur unterstützen.

Um den wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs zu fördern, hat das Konfuzius-Institut Graz neben seinen umfangreichen Stipendienprogrammen erstmals einen Dissertationspreis für Chinaforschung ausgeschrieben. Die mit 1000 Euro dotierte Auszeichnung wurde am China-Abend an Xuehong Nöst verliehen. In ihrer Doktorarbeit “A metabolomics approach for the holistic investigation of two complex herbal TCM formulations” hat die junge Forscherin zwei Arzneimischungen der Traditionellen Chinesischen Medizin untersucht, potenziell bioaktive Wirkstoffe identifiziert und Methoden für deren Qualitätskontrolle entwickelt.

Electrifying: Researchers film the first moments on the way from light to electricity

Physicists at the University of Graz (Austria), in collaboration with colleagues from Marburg University and Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany), have achieved a scientific breakthrough. For the first time, the generation of electrical energy from light has been filmed and described theoretically. This work is of far-reaching significance, not least for optimising sustainable energy production from photovoltaics. This is because it provides fundamental building blocks for understanding the physical processes that take place, for example, in organic solar cells. The paper was published in the journal Physical Review X, one of the world’s most prestigious physics journals.

How can we teach using YouTube and AI? The University of Graz is strengthening media education in schools

A journey through the blood vessels using VR headsets brings biology lessons to life. An interactive quiz brings physics to life. The YouTube video explains the First World War. Whilst mobile phones are increasingly being banned from the classroom, social media platforms, apps and AI are playing an ever-greater role in knowledge transfer at school. But how can teaching with media be made even more effective? What are the challenges in media-based teaching? At the University of Graz, researchers are discussing these issues at a conference being held in Austria for the first time.

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.
