SFB1491 leaves X

18.07.2024

Due to the recent changes in X’s structure and function as well as its method of communication, SFB1491 no longer perceives X as a suitable platform to convey our information appropriately.

We are therefore following the example of Ruhr University Bochum, terminating our communication over X for the time being.

You will find all the latest news and insights of SFB1491 on our Instagram and LinkedIn channels.

IdeenExpo 2024

30.06.2024

In June 2024, we had the great opportunity to be part of the IdeenExpo in Hanover. The IdeenExpo is Europe‘s largest youth event for technology and natural sciences!

IdeenExpo aims to inspire young minds in the STEM fields and foster future experts. 
We had the chance to support the ESERO (European Space Education Office) exhibition stand, thanks to our PIs Susanne Hüttemeister, Ralf-Jürgen Dettmar and Dominik Bomans, who are also ESERO partners.

In collaboration with ESERO, a lot of activities for school kids took place, like workshops, experiments, e.g. with our Kelvin-Helmholtz tube, chats and discussions.
With all that, we had the chance to reach out to thousands of kids - aiming to spark curiosity and love for science.


The IdeenExpo will take place again in 2026 and we are already looking forward to that!
