The Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1411 – “Design of particulate products” invites applications for an Equal Opportunity Fellowship. Eligible are international female applicants to one of the involved study programs at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg, that have been adm...
Our Bachelor Student Sonja Schaller was awarded the first prize for her poster "Determining the Organization of Binary Colloidal Supraparticles by matters of Diffusiophoresis and Channel Formation” at the Spray Drying Symposium taking place in Würzburg on 09.04.2024. We are very proud of her achieve...
At a DECHEMA/VDI conference in February 2024, CRC 1411's research was prominently featured, with Nabi Traoré (Project A01) and Lukas Hartmann (Project B04) receiving awards for their presentations. Their contributions highlight CRC 1411's impactful role in advancing particulate systems research.
Update (March 2024): We still have a couple of open positions in the following areas:
- Synthesis of hierarchical porous materials for nanoparticle chromatography Supervisor: Prof. Nicolas Vogel
- Multidimensional characterization of nanoparticle ensembles Supervisor: Dr. Johannes Walter
Karl Mandel got the great news that he will receive an ERC Consolidator Grant. His project aims at turning matter perceptual using “SmartRust”. This endeavor will be funded with 2 Mio. € for the upcoming 5 years.
We are happy to announce that our CRC1411 will receive fundings to continue its research for the next 4 years. After a successful first funding period under the guidance of Prof. Wolfgang Peukert, we will continue our activities with Prof. Nicolas Vogel as spokesperson, and Prof. Martin Hartmann wil...

Prof. Vogel's lecture "Grenzflächen in der Verfahrenstechnik" was again on the podium as one of the best rated lectures in the whole Technical Faculty! In this class Nicolas Vogel discusses interfaces in materials and process technologies, with plenty of examples from nature and technology. Read mo...
The 2023 Nobel Prize for chemistry has been awarded to Moungi Bawendi, Louis Brus and Aleksey Ekimov for their discovery of quantum dots, nanoparticles that are so small that their physical size determines the quantum mechanical states of the material’s charge carriers. Quantum dots constitute a new...
