What will tomorrow’s energy supply look like—and what aspects of it are already a reality in Jena today? The City of Jena’s exhibition “ENERGY—WHAT MOVES US” provides answers to these and other questions about the energy transition.

This VR exhibition offers an interactive experience of the role of money in the life of the Apostle Paul. Avatars, 3D models of ancient coins, and replicas you can hold in your hands combine digital and real-world experiences and provide insight into numismatics.

witelo and Imaginata are visiting JEDI to showcase their favorite experiments: Together with the JenaWirtschaft team and students from the Carl-Zeiss-Gymnasium, we invite you to experiment, marvel, and join in the fun.

Self-healing and shape-memory polymers, as well as polymers used as drug carriers, are the focus of current research, in which automation, digitalization, and AI are playing an increasingly important role.

The exhibition "Images & Building Blocks" focuses on birds and insects. Through his documentary nature photography, Hubert Mahr aims to highlight the fascinating diversity of local habitats and draw attention to details that are often overlooked.

Insects are by far the most species-rich class of animals. They inhabit the most unusual habitats. But what makes them so successful? We introduce the subjects of our research and discuss their lifestyles and their contribution to science.

We provide fascinating insights into the latest research in pharmaceutical technology and show how innovative materials and manufacturing processes are helping to shape the medicine of tomorrow.
