Comenius University Bratislava helps shape the future of nuclear energy

The action plan was prepared in close cooperation with state authorities and specialised institutions active across the nuclear sector, ranging from the operation and decommissioning of nuclear facilities to nuclear regulation, applied technical research, energy companies and universities. It responds to growing demand for qualified professionals in a field that now extends well beyond energy production and plays a key role in medicine, pharmacy, industry and regulatory bodies. New projects require the systematic training of thousands of specialists – from technicians and engineers to...

ENLIGHT Alliance Marks Its Fifth Anniversary in Bratislava

The formal opening was held on 2 December in CU’s historic Auditorium. “ENLIGHT was born out of a simple yet bold idea: that universities across Europe can work together not only by exchanging students, but also by sharing ideas, courage, and curiosity. Five years later, we are creating joint study programmes and micro-credentials, and supporting genuine mobility – both physical and virtual. Our researchers are working closely together, and students can propose solutions to real societal challenges alongside peers from ten countries,” said CU Rector Marek Števček. Over the following days,...

Biophysicist Zuzana Garaiová from CU Receives the L’Oréal–UNESCO For Women in Science Award

Zuzana Garaiová focuses on the biophysical study of nanoparticles, such as nanoemulsions, which have potential applications in targeted cancer therapy. These are extremely small oil droplets dispersed in water, capable of delivering drugs directly into tumour cells and increasing treatment effectiveness. In developing the oil component of the nanoemulsions, she plans to explore the use of natural substances with anticancer properties, including squalene and pomegranate seed oil. She also aims to source these materials sustainably, for example from lipid-producing yeasts that can grow on...

Nature Astronomy: CU scientists analysed a meteorite and contributed to research crucial for planetary defence

Among the leading Slovak experts involved in the research were Professor Pavel Povinec, Assoc. Professor Ivan Sýkora, and Dr Ivan Kontuľ from the Department of Nuclear Physics and Biophysics of FMPI CU. The Slovak team analysed terrestrial fragments of the asteroid, known as the Saint-Pierre-le-Viger (SPLV) meteorite, using gamma spectrometry to determine the concentrations of cosmogenic radionuclides, i.e. radioactive isotopes produced by the interaction of cosmic rays with the asteroid during its journey through space. These radionuclides provide data on how long the asteroid was exposed to...

Inspection Day of CU Management at Dormitory and University Kindergarten Construction Sites

University Kindergarten in Mlynská dolina The kindergarten project was launched to help parents reconcile childcare with work responsibilities. It was built on the site of a former ammunition depot, the only brick structure in the Staré Grunty complex. After extensive reconstruction, only the original frame of the building remained, and the entire structural system had to be redesigned. The original plan called for a single classroom for 24 children, but after the project was reassessed in cooperation with university management, its capacity was doubled. Thanks to the new...
