How is an innovative drug actually developed? We'll show you during our tours of the development labs.

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.

A diverse program of events is taking place in the institute’s lecture halls and laboratories: Why do mountain ranges form in Central Asia? What is the diversity of fossils found in the biosphere? How and why do rocks fold? How do we use underground storage facilities? ... and more

What role do relationships and personal resources play in our well-being? At the Resources and Connections Board, visitors can visualize their own experiences and discover new perspectives.

How and where do the scientists conduct their research? We invite you to join us for an informative tour of the FLI’s new laboratory building, where we’ll share some interesting facts about the “art in architecture” featured in the building.

How do doctors identify tumor boundaries? Why do middle ear infections occur? And how do modern technologies help us better understand diseases?
