About the magazine

Those doing research have a lot to tell

Rudolphina is the research magazine of the University of Vienna. Here, you can find first-hand knowledge – directly from a research team, the laboratory or a think tank. The Rudolphina editorial team looks over the shoulders of researchers from the University of Vienna and, together with them, tells about their long path towards new findings, their successes and setbacks as well as their passion for a subject.

The name Rudolphina has been part of the University of Vienna (Latin: Alma Mater Rudolphina Vindobonensis) since its foundation. For us, the name is a symbol for courage to enter uncharted territory, persistence and trust in academic findings. The University of Vienna is one of the largest knowledge sources in Europe: Here, about 7,400 academics conduct research at 20 faculties and centres. We are genuinely curious. Since 1365.
