Psychopathic people have great difficulty or are even unable to show empathy and regulate their emotions. According to a new study by Matthias Burghart, a Max Planck researcher in Freiburg, this could be because these people suffer from alexithymia, also known as emotional blindness.

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) have succeeded in testing quantum electrodynamics with unprecedented accuracy to 13 decimal places. The new measurement is almost twice as accurate as all previous hydrogen measurements combined and moves science one step closer to solving the proton size puzzle. This high accuracy was achieved by the Nobel Prize-winning frequency comb technique, which debuted here for the first time to excite atoms in high-resolution spectroscopy. The results are published today in Science.
However, while new measurements from Garching and Toronto confirmed the smaller proton

Bettina Lotsch, director at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgart, receives the Leibniz Prize 2025. She is honoured for her development of new materials. The Leibniz Prize, awarded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), is Germany’s most prestigious research funding award, accompanied by prize money of 2.5 million euros. This year, the prize will honour 10 scientists, including four women, granting them seven years of research freedom with minimal bureaucratic constraints. The award ceremony is scheduled to take place on 15 March 2023 in Berlin.
