SUMMARY:GBM Award Ceremony - Recipient M. Sc. Ludwig Krauß
DESCRIPTION:Invitation to Awards Ceremony\nIn our innovation teams\, not only PhD Candidates and Post-Docs do innovative research\, but also Bachelor’s and Master’s theses are supervised. In Team B4 “Designer Proteins as Bio-based Binders” Ludwig Kraus successfully completed his Master’s Thesis titled “Rekombinante Produktion eines von Polychaeten-\, Kollagen- und Seide-inspirierten artifiziellen Bindeproteins (PCS) und dessen materialwissenschaftliche Charakterisierung”. For that\, he is now receiving the GBM Best Master’s Award 2026 with which the German Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology honours outstanding thesis in biochemistry and molecular biology and thus supports early-career researchers. \nThe thesis was supervised by Dr. Constanze Zwies within the research team of Prof. Dr. Markus Pietzsch. \nWe congratulate Ludwig Krauß to this outstanding work! \nProf. Dr. Thomas Scheibel (Bayreuth University) will give a Key Note titled „Engineering\, processing and application of protein based materials“. Please find the full invitation for download here: Invitation

SUMMARY:Just Transitions to a Net Zero World: Third Annual International Conference
DESCRIPTION:Durham University’s Centre for Sustainable Development Law and Policy (CSDLP) and the European Center of Just Transition Research and Impact-Driven Transfer (JTC) at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg are pleased to announce our third Annual International Conference on Just Transitions to a Net Zero World\, to be held at Durham University on 10-11 September 2026. \nCall for Abstracts is open\nBackground\nUnder the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement a broad theoretical consensus has been reached towards accomplishing – globally – the paths to a Net Zero World. How to implement this consensus at the national level remains a contested issue. The concept of Just Transitions encompasses a wide range of dimensions and perspectives\, reflecting the complexity of global shifts towards more just and low-carbon economy. They include labour-oriented approaches\, integrated justice frameworks\, socio-technical transition approaches\, governance strategies\, and public perceptions of what constitutes a ‘just’ transition. At a time when transition pathways and even their scientific necessity are once again subject to political challenge\, even the already existing just transition commitments are threatened. Our central concern is not merely what climate law and governance promise\, but how these frameworks can be modelled\, enacted and operationalised in practice. \nFirmly grounded in the theoretical work of the first two conferences\, this 3rd edition of our joint conference seeks to move beyond theory and explore the concrete and innovative pathways that translate agreed‑upon changes into practice. We welcome critical\, interdisciplinary and practice-oriented contributions that explore multifaceted pathways seeking to balance social\, ecological and economic aspects of transitions while remaining sensitive to context-specific factors. We invite contributions that engage with the implementation aspects of just transitions\, address the challenge of bridging gaps between theory and practice\, and examine the development of processes that shape transition outcomes. \nConference Themes\nSubmissions may address\, but are not limited to\, the following themes: \n\nJust Transitions to Govern Net Zero Strategies and Sustainable Development\nJust Transitions: Reality or Utopia?\nJust Transitions in Industry and Technology\nJust Transition: For Whom\, By Whom\, With Whom?\n\nAll information on abstract submission and participation can be found on the official conference website: To the conference

SUMMARY:Open Source at UN Science Summit
DESCRIPTION:Martin Häuer\, Team Leader of Team C1 “Sustainability-Standardization” is confirmed as speaker at the United Nations Science Summit 2026. In the session “Open infrastructures for global health\, education and open science“\, he will talk about the importance of open source hardware for science and healthcare infrastructure. The session will take place online and a free registration is possible via this link: Register \nMartin Häuer was accepted with two session contributions: \nOpen Source Imaging\nMany public services\, including healthcare\, significantly depend on proprietary products and infrastructure. This tends to inflate the service costs enormously – to a simply unaffordable degree\, especially in the global South. The Open Source Imaging Initiative (OSI²) has developed an MRI scanner – which allows everyone to use\, study\, share\, and improve it – thereby counteracting the MRI oligopoly and opening up processes for clinical certification. OSI² aims to provide open-source reference technology that can 1) serve as a product standard\, 2) diversify supply chains (and eliminating vendor lock-ins) and 3) aid research e.g. via data comparability on fully characterized systems.This talk will give an overview of the initiative and outline the concept of democratic\, sovereign technology for critical infrastructure. \nOSH Standardization\nAs open source allows anyone to use\, study\, modify\, and redistribute material\, there is hardly any need to reinvent the wheel anymore. In software\, a global community is organically shaping standard solutions for even highly complex issues\, free for anyone to use\, adopt\, or commercialize. This is primarily enabled by open source licenses; the governance of individual projects almost becomes irrelevant\, as ineffective leadership can simply be replaced through a fork.However\, this model has its limitations. Such as one cannot simply fork a house\, some technologies come with a very high “cost of change”\, making it difficult for downstream users to replace them with variants that better represent their needs. This is the case for many open source hardware projects\, where design decisions can exclude entire regions from replicating\, maintaining\, or commercializing a product. Consequently\, more representative methods of decision-making are needed.De jure standardization\, despite claiming to be representative\, has seen little procedural innovation over the past 100 years and is often unfeasible for open source hardware. At the same time\, open standards processes in software generally do not claim to be representative and may prove equally unfeasible in the long run\, as decision-making can become dominated by individual actors.This talk will briefly outline the problem and propose a potential solution aimed at closing this gap. \n
