Opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence in medicine

Artificial intelligence is an integral part of many areas of everyday life. It can also help in medicine, for example to filter out correlations between symptoms and diseases from medical data and make treatment recommendations.

Bremerhaven logistics student investigates shock loads during container handling

In order to choose the right form of load securing, companies need to know what accelerations act on the goods during transport.

But what loads act on the goods during container handling? This was investigated by Bremerhaven student Bennet Krause during a project.

Researchers at Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences are working on trout feed from local resources

Mealworms and algae oil could make aquaculture more sustainable Aquaculture has been the fastest growing sector in food production worldwide for years and could make a significant contribution to food security for future generations. However, feeding fishmeal is not optimal either economically or ecologically. In the ‘LokaLaStern’ project, researchers at Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences therefore want to develop a nutrient-optimised feed for trout that comes entirely from regional sources.
