Networks & Facilities
Our research builds on well-established scientific and infrastructure networks that are maintained by one or more of the involved institutions. These networks have been the basis for many successful collaborations. We are constantly extending and adding networks to perform cutting edge research that tackles the fundamental, global challenge of rapid biodiversity change. Currently, our partners from ATB are setting up a new experimental infrastructure, the Leibniz Innovation Farm (InnoFarm), which will allow detailed observation of natural systems using automated high-tech methods and large-scale experimental manipulations on a commercially managed presicion-tech farm.
