There are questions and problems around us that even a grade school pupil can understand, but answering or solving them would take decades or perhaps centuries even for the greatest minds of the world. István Pink, a researcher at the University of Debrecen, and his Japanese colleague Takafumi Miyazaki, have found an answer to a question just like that, which has been open for 30 or 40 years. Their solution was published in one of the world’s most respected and celebrated journals in its field, the American Journal of Mathematics.
A new procedure developed by a research group at the Faculty of Science and Technology of the University of Debrecen (FST, UD) may open up new avenues and provide a roadmap for future mass spectrometry analyses. This new testing method significantly reduces the time and cost of mass spectrometry measurements of proteins both in the pharmaceutical industry and protein research. The publication that summarizes the scientific finding has appeared in one of the most prestigious international chemistry journals, Angewandte Chemie.
As a consequence of the automotive investments in Debrecen, our city has become a new center of the automotive industry in Central Europe, which exerts significant influence on the life of Debrecen.
