Location & approach

By car

The campus of the Technical University of Dortmund is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerland line A45 crosses the Ruhr expressway B1/A40. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.

By public transport

The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S-Bahn line S1 runs every 15 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. In addition, the university can be reached by bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr Transport Association, and DSW21 also offer an interactive route network map.

The H-Bahn (Suspended monorail system)

The H-Bahn is one of the hallmarks of TU Dortmund University. There are two stations on North Campus. One (“Dortmund Universität S”) is directly located at the suburban train stop, which connects the university directly with the city of Dortmund and the rest of the Ruhr Area. Also from this station, there are connections to the “Technologiepark” and (via South Campus) Eichlinghofen. The other station is located at the dining hall at North Campus and offers a direct connection to South Campus every five minutes.

By plane

The AirportExpress is a fast and convenient means of transport from Dortmund Airport (DTM) to Dortmund Central Station, taking you there in little more than 20 minutes. From Dortmund Central Station, you can continue to the university campus by interurban railway (S-Bahn). A larger range of international flight connections is offered at Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), which is about 60 kilometres away and can be directly reached by S-Bahn from the university station.

Plan of site & interactive map

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".

“Molecular Networking-Guided Discovery of Kyonggic Acids in Massilia spp.” “Fluent Integration of Laboratory Data into Biocatalytic Process Simulation Using EnzymeML, DWSIM, and Ontologies.” in Processes

"Molecular Networking-Guided Discovery of Kyonggic Acids in Massilia spp." in European Journal of Organic Chemistry Till Steinmetz and his co-authors used mass spectrometry-based molecular networks to perform the first comprehensive analysis of the secondary metabolome of Massilia species. The species with the most promising secondary metabolites were selected using the molecular networks and cultivated on a large scale. Five metabolites were obtained after purification in milligram quantities. Structural elucidation revealed a cyclic dipeptide and four acylamino acids related to thalassotalic acid C from the marine bacterium Thalassotalea sp. The four kyonggic acids obtained from Massilia inhibit the enzyme tyrosinase. This study demonstrates the importance of mass spectrometry-based molecular networks in the discovery of new bioactive natural products.

"Fluent Integration of Laboratory Data into Biocatalytic Process Simulation Using EnzymeML, DWSIM, and Ontologies."in Processes Alexander S. Behr and his co-authors develop a new method for rapid screening of reaction parameters in flow reactors. A novel workflow with digital image processing (DIP) was developed to quantify product concentrations and the use of structured data acquisition with EnzymeML tables in combination with ontology-based semantic information. A major advantage of the method is the fast and smooth data integration into a simulation tool for kinetics evaluation. An important finding of the study is that a flexibly adaptable ontology is essential for FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, Reusability) data processing.
