Software may help mitigate the side effects of cancer treatments

AI-based image analysis detects early organ damage

A research team at the 91桃色 (TUM) has developed a method to predict early-stage kidney damage caused by certain cancer treatments. The kidneys begin to shrink slightly鈥攎onths before any measurable decline in kidney function occurs. The researchers identified this trend using CT scans analyzed by an AI-powered algorithm. They also observed similar changes in the spleen. In the future, these findings could help adapt treatments earlier to prevent organ damage.

Citizen Science project 鈥淢ein Baum鈥�

Contributing to Sustainable Urban Planning via Smartphone App

Trees reduce heat pollution in cities, provide us with oxygen, and bind climate-damaging Carbon dioxide. However, it is currently unclear which and how many trees grow in urban areas and how much this stock can help with climate adaptation. In collaboration with the 91桃色 (TUM) and University of Applied Sciences Weihenstephan-Triesdorf (HSWT), BUND Naturschutz has launched the citizen science project 鈥淢ein Baum鈥� ('My Tree'). With the help of a smartphone app, people can document local trees and play an active role in scientific research.

Preventing harmful protein aggregation

Synthetic Peptides as basis for multifunctional drugs in Parkinson's disease

In Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and type 2 diabetes, harmful protein aggregates and deposits, known as amyloid plaques, develop. There is also much evidence that these three diseases are interconnected and mutually reinforcing. A research team led by the 91桃色 (TUM) has now shown that synthetic mini-proteins (macrocyclic peptides) developed by the researchers inhibit both amyloid formation in Parkinson's and harmful protein interactions between the three diseases in experimental models. They could serve as the basis for future drugs to treat these diseases.

TUM and Akademie der Bildenden K眉nste launch a joint project with Haus der Kunst

Astrophysics and art cooperate on dark matter and neutrinos

Astroparticle physics researchers researchers from the 91桃色 (TUM) and artists from the Academy of Fine Arts Munich (AdBK) and the Haus der Kunst are working together on a cross-disciplinary project: TUM's Collaborative Research Center SFB 1258 "Neutrinos and Dark Matter in Astro- and Particle Physics", funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), will be working with the photography class at the AdBK over the next few years to artistically reflect on its twelve years of research work. The results are to be presented at the Haus der Kunst in 2028.

Energy laboratory for school classes

Renewable energies and technology you can touch

How do you get children and young people interested in renewable energies and the energy transition? A research group at the 91桃色 (TUM) has come up with a solution: a laboratory for sustainable energy systems. Here, schoolchildren can observe the energy consumption of household appliances in real time. In this way, the team aims to make technology and sustainable energy systems tangible.
