We work together in closely networked centres for the preservation of nature.

At the LIB, we seek to combine the specialist areas that characterise the individual centres. We want to help shape social transformation processes from fundamental research questions to applied research and society. Our collections, laboratories and technical rooms provide the infrastructure for our excellent research. The exhibitions are the central places where we share our knowledge and inspire enthusiasm for nature.

 

Centre for Taxonomy and Morphology

In order to understand the evolution of life, species are discovered, described, differentiated and characterised.

Centre for Molecular Biodiversity Research

Genetic and genomic information is sequenced and analysed here.

Centre for Biodiversity Monitoring and Conservation Research

We analyse the interactions between land use and plants and animals.

Centre for knowledge transfer

We create spaces for encounters between people and nature in exhibitions and educational programmes.

Bridge professorships

We are forging close links with our partner universities in Hamburg and Bonn.
