Simon Stellmer receives ERC Proof of Concept Grant
Professor Simon Stellmer, a member of the Cluster of Excellence ML4Q, receives a ‘Proof of Concept Grant’ from the European Research Council (ERC) for his project „GyroRevolutionPlus“. With the funding of €150,000 for up to 18 months, the physicist will continue to prepare his research results from previous ERC projects for commercial application. This is the second time that Professor Stellmer has been successful in this funding program after having received a grant for his previous project ‘GyroRevolution’ in 2023. The precision instruments he and his team are developing can be used to improve natural disaster early warning systems.
MULTIPLIERS: Where Everyone Wins
Around 1,500 schoolchildren from six EU countries have been engaged in intensive study of some of the challenges currently facing the world in the company of natural science experts. After completing each module on a different topic, they have been acting as “multipliers,” sharing their knowledge and experiences with their family, friends and classmates. Three schools from Bonn took part.
“Bone2Gene” Secures €1 Million Grant
The “Bone2Gene” project of researchers from the University of Bonn and University Hospital Bonn has been awarded funding worth €1,000,000 as part of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research’s GO-Bio initial program. The money is now enabling the team to progress to the feasibility phase and get its product ready for market launch. This is actually the second grant that the project has secured, the first having been used for the conceptual phase and to test the product’s marketability. “Bone2Gene“ is using artificial intelligence (AI) to make genetic bone conditions known as skeletal dysplasia easier to spot and diagnose.
From text to structured information securely with AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) and above all large language models (LLMs), which also form the basis for ChatGPT, are increasingly in demand in hospitals. However, patient data must always be protected. Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn have now been able to show that local LLMs can help structure radiological findings in a privacy-safe manner, with all data remaining at the hospital. They compared various LLMs on public reports without data protection and on data-protected reports. Commercial models that require data transfer to external servers showed no advantage over local, data protection-compliant models. The results have now been published in the journal "Radiology".
