Biological in Central Hesse: Touching Science for Pupils!

In an exciting step to promote science formation, the biological in Homberg (Ohm) was opened! This innovative participation research institution promises to make environmental issues tangible in a gripping way. Schoolchildren can take action here and go on a scientific journey of discovery that goes far beyond the classroom.

The biological aims to offer school classes and students practical experience in biological research. With exciting experiments and a large outdoor area, the facility under the direction of Harald Lesch, the renowned ZDF presenter and scientific director, becomes a unique place in Germany. Lesch emphasizes that the biological is a logical continuation of the Middle Hessian Mit-Mache Museums Mathematics and Chemikum. Here it is researched how living things interact in a system - a topic that is becoming increasingly important in view of global global warming.

focus on environmental education

The focus of future work is on pressing topics such as pollution, biodiversity and climate change. Peter Ebke, co -founder of the biology and professor of biology, emphasizes that this knowledge is important for all ages, but especially for young people who can be achieved more easily through the school institution. The facility will initially work without fixed opening times, and visiting appointments are only possible after prior consultation. An exciting new chapter for science formation in Central Hesse has started!
