From now on, electrical engineering students at UD will be able to learn how to use programmable logic controllers (PLCs) in an industrial environment. In connection with the new lab, representatives of companies operating in the region discussed opportunities for cooperation with the faculty.

How does the stress genes composition of a fungal species determine its stress tolerance? A research group at UD has studied the behaviour of pathogens of aspergillosis, a fungal infection. Findings have been published in a leading journal on mycology.

The Faculty of Science and Technology, celebrating its 70th anniversary this year, awaits prospective students with engineering programmes presenting state-of-the-art technologies and programmes in natural sciences providing high-quality knowledge.

National Instruments Hungary Kft. (NI) has again decided to support the technical and scientific education of UD, this time by donating HUF 15 million. The delivery ceremony of the LabVIEW Multisim software licence took place on Tuesday at the Faculty of Engineering.

The 2nd Élvonal Conference, entitled "New directions in the research of the evolution of sexual roles", started on Friday. Scientists from all over the world participate at the event that is connected to an international research programme focusing on the social behaviour of shore birds.

A discovery made by researchers of UD may be an important step forward in fighting against bacteria. The researchers have created compounds that may prevent infections caused by pathogens. The findings have been published in "Chemistry – A European Journal".

In his presentation at the University of Debrecen, a lecturer of the Obninsk Nuclear Power Institute talked about the technological and technical aspects of designing nuclear power plants.

An international research team, led by a professor working at the University of Debrecen, examined the impact of climate change on the nesting patterns of shorebirds. The project has produced some surprising results, which opens up new perspectives on the consequences of global warming.

Ecologists of UD have produced surprising results in their research studying the effect of human activities on the dispersal of vegetation. Their presentation was a huge success at the conference of The Ecological Society of Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Nikoletta Andrea Nagy, a young biologist at University of Debrecen, studies the hormonal background of the biparental care of lethrus apterus. Her presentation on her research was judged the best at the 29th Conference of European Comparative Endocrinologists.
