Researchers from the University of Jena and Paderborn University are exploring this issue in their new research project ‘SeiP: Practicing self-promotion – approaches to a self-determined, multimodal competence assessment for young people with disadvantages/disabilities’.
Researchers from Paderborn University publish findings in ‘Optica’
Researchers at Paderborn University have demonstrated that ‘spontaneous parametric down-conversion’ – a phenomenon from the field of quantum photonics – is compatible with cryogenic, i.e. extremely cold, operating conditions required for superconducting detectors. Their findings are important for, among other things, applications of quantum optics in integration platforms, e.g.…
Paderborn University physicist Professor Klaus J?ns has been awarded an ‘ERC Starting Grant’ from the European Research Council (ERC) – one of the most prestigious awards in the field of science in Europe.
An international team of leading scientists, headed up by Paderborn physicist Professor Klaus J?ns, has compiled a comprehensive overview of the potential, global outlook, background and frontiers of integrated photonics.
Quantum technologies are a focus of research worldwide, and an indispensable tool for exploring underlying phenomena used in imaging research for the scientific development of quantum communication systems. The German Research Foundation (DFG) has now approved two major instrumentation initiatives to address such applications.
As part of its “Catalysis under Dynamic Conditions” priority programme, the German Research Foundation (DFG) is funding a project on climate protection and the associated production of green hydrogen, conducted by Paderborn University, RWTH Aachen University and the Technical University of Kaiserslautern.
Last week, the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs of the L?nder in the Federal Republic of Germany (KMK) approved a comprehensive ten-year plan to improve mathematics education in Germany.

Das Thema sexueller Missbrauch von Minderj?hrigen in der katholischen Kirche hat heftige Debatten ausgel?st. Wesentliche Fragen waren allerdings bislang offen. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat das Erzbistum Paderborn die Universit?t Paderborn bereits im vergangenen Jahr mit einer historischen Studie beauftragt.
Eine schwere Erkrankung oder Verletzung führt im Durchschnitt zu ?hnlichen geistigen Einbu-?en wie eine Alterung um vier Jahre. Zu diesen Ergebnissen kommen Prof. Dr. Hendrik Schmitz vom Department Economics der Universit?t Paderborn und sein wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter Valentin Schiele in ihrer aktuellen Studie in Kooperation mit dem RWI – Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung. Dazu wurden Befragungen und Kognitionstests von rund 125.000…
