Wie funktioniert...

Wie funktionert ein Screening für einen geeigneten Wirkstoff gegen das Coronavirus? Der aktuelle Hör-Saal-Podcast gibt Antwort.

Wie funktionert ein Screening für einen geeigneten Wirkstoff gegen das Coronavirus? Der aktuelle Hör-Saal-Podcast gibt Antwort.

ein Wirkstoff-Screening? Die Universität Graz beantwortet Fragen zur Corona-Krise #17

Die Universität Graz beantwortet Fragen zur Corona-Krise - und sie tut das in Form von Presseaussendungen, Videos sowie als Podcast-Hintergrundgespräche mit ForscherInnen aus verschiedenen Fachrichtungen. Im neuen Podcast-Format "Hör-Saal: 15 Minuten Forschung" gibt es ein Mal pro Woche die Gelegenheit, in ein bestimmtes Thema tiefer einzutauchen. Diese Woche:

Hör-Saal # 4: Wie funktioniert ein Wirkstoff-Screening?

WissenschafterInnen weltweit arbeiten derzeit mit Hochdruck daran, einen Wirkstoff gegen das Corona-Virus zu entwickeln oder zu überprüfen, wie man bereits vorhandene Medikamente gegen das Virus einsetzen kann. Oft fällt dabei das Wort „Screening“- etwa wenn das steirische Unternehmen Innophore, ein Spin-off der Universität Graz, bekannt gibt, gemeinsam mit Google und Harvard rund zwei Milliarden an potenziellen Wirkstoff-Kandidaten zu „screenen.“

Aber was passiert bei so einem „Screening“ genau, woher wissen die ForscherInnen, wenn sie dabei einen vielversprechenden Kandidaten entdeckt haben und was passiert dann als Nächstes? Ulrich Stelzl vom Institut für Pharmazeutische Wissenschaften der Universität Graz gibt im aktuellen „Hör-Saal“-Podcast darauf Antwort.  

Zum Nachhören:

>> Episode # 1 (23.3.2020) - "Warum hamstern wir?"
>> Episode # 2 (30.3.2020) - "Was können wir aus Pandemien lernen?"
>> Episode # 3 (06.04.2020) - „Raubt uns die Krise die Menschenwürde?“

Staying fit during the holidays: summer sports on the University of Graz campus

The Kleeblattlauf is not the end of the fitness term. Following last year’s successful launch, the University of Graz is once again offering summer sports on campus this year. From 30 June to 16 July 2026, there will be a free exercise programme in the open air. On the shady Südwiese (between the main building and Universitätsplatz 2), anyone interested can get in shape in the afternoons with body workouts, fascia training and yoga.

Getting even hotter: Researchers predict global warming of 1.7 degrees by 2027

While Europe is currently sweltering in the heat, global temperatures are also rising towards concerning record levels. In 2026, Earth’s surface air temperature is expected to reach 1.62 degrees, and in 2027 even 1.71 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The long-term temperature rise – an average over a 20-year period – is predicted to exceed the 1.5-degree threshold of the Paris Agreement as of 2026 already. For the first time, researchers at the University of Graz have been able to make such a forecast so far in advance. The intensifying El Niño climate event favors forecast skill and thereby facilitates a reliable computation.
