/en/research/biomolecular-mass-spectrometry-and-proteomics - Biomorphodynamics of living river and coastal landscapes
Our aim is to understand and predict natural and human-induced dynamics of living fluvial and coastal landscapes.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/biomorphodynamics-of-living-river-and-coastal-landscapes - Clinical Child & Family Studies
At the department Clinical Child & Family Studies we conduct research on children and the impact of premature birth, bullying, divorce, illness, death and crime.
/en/organisation/clinical-child-family-studies/research/current-research - Computational geography and earth observation
Earth observation from satellites and other platforms (aircrafts, drones) is crucial for our understanding of System Earth and to monitor processes at the Earth surface.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/computational-geography-and-earth-observation - Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science
At the Debye Institute for Nanomaterial(s) Science, chemistry and physics meet to study the properties of materials at the nanoscale, with a specific focus on three themes: catalysis, colloid science and nanophotonics.
/en/research/debye-institute-for-nanomaterials-science - Department of Physical Geography
Our research is directed to understanding the physical processes, patterns, and forms at the Earth's terrestrial surface.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography - Development & Education of Youth in Diverse Societies
At the department Development & Education of Youth in Diverse Societies we deal with issues of optimal development and participation of children and young people in diverse societies.
/en/organisation/development-education-of-youth-in-diverse-societies/research - Dynamics of Youth
How can we help our children to develop into well-balanced individuals who are able to hold their own and develop fully in a rapidly changing world?
/en/research/dynamics-of-youth - Education
Education is about improving the quality of teaching, training and learning. Educational insights from research are directly applied in undergraduate, graduate and teacher training programmes.
/en/organisation/education/research - Evolution and morphodynamics of rivers, floodplains and deltas
Our Delta Evolution programme aims to develop a fundamental, data-driven understanding of the development of deltas and resulting subsurface architecture at time scales of millennia to centuries.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/evolution-and-morphodynamics-of-rivers-floodplains-and-deltas - Geolab
The GeoLab is the main laboratory facility of the Faculty of Geosciences. We have a wide range of lab facilities available for measuring bulk rock geochemistry, bulk rock stable isotopes (H, C, N, S), in situ stable and radiogenic isotopes (U,Pb-dating), in situ major and trace elements and crystallography.
/en/organisation/faculty-of-geosciences/research-facilities/geolab - Inorganic Chemistry & Catalysis
The research in this group involves synthesis, characterization and performance of well-defined solid catalysts and related functional materials for gas storage and photochemical conversion processes.
/en/research/inorganic-chemistry-catalysis - Landscape functioning and natural hazards
Our group focuses on studying natural hazards processes: including landslides and soil erosion in mountainous areas in the Alps and the Himalayas, and wind erosion and droughts in semi-arid environments like the Mediterranean region and the Sahara. The results of our studies and the outcome of our models helps society to mitigate the negative impacts of hazards.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/landscape-functioning-and-natural-hazards - Membrane Biochemistry & Biophysics
This research group has a focus on the molecular mechanisms behind life processes that involve biological membranes. Their research will help to improve fundamental understanding of membrane function thereby leading to better insights in membrane-related diseases like diabetes, Alzheimers disease and Barth syndrome.
/en/research/membrane-biochemistry-and-biophysics - Methodology and Statistics
At the department Methodology & Statistics we develop methodological and statistical techniques for the purpose of (social and behavioural sciences) research.
/en/organisation/methodology-and-statistics/research - NMR
The research in this group aims at gaining fundamental insight into biological processes using solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
/en/research/nmr - Organic Chemistry & Catalysis
This multi-disciplinary research group studies topics as diverse as synthetic and physical organic chemistry, homogeneous catalysis, and bioinorganic chemistry.
/en/research/organic-chemistry-catalysis - Paleoclimate & Biogeology
Palaeoecology studies past environmental dynamics by means of palaeo-reconstructions combined with experiments and observations to understand past and present behavior of biota in relation to humans, climate and natural competition.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/paleoclimate-biogeology - Physical Colloid Chemistry
This research group is focused on the self-organisation of colloids and nanoparticles in liquid media.
/en/research/physical-colloid-chemistry - Structural Biochemistry
This section aims at a precise biochemical understanding of chemical and biological processes in cells and tissue that are enabled by proteins.
/node/105019 - Sustainability
This research theme aims to unravel system Earth for a sustainable future.
/en/research/sustainability - Water Climate and Future Deltas
This research area focuses on dealing with problems related to subsidence and associated loss of ecosystem services.
/en/research/water-climate-and-future-deltas - Youth & Family
Youth & Family is about research on the psychosocial development of young people and their relationships with parents, friends and romantic partners. It studies the upbringing and development of young people during adolescence and young adulthood between the ages of 10 and 30.
