The key research area Optical Technologies at Leibniz Universität Hannover brings together researchers from across disciplines who work in the areas of laser physics, production engineering, material development, computer science and electrical engineering. The video shows examples of how the research results will be applied in medicine, agriculture, the development of parts and components, and the optimisation of traffic in future. For example, there is a lighting measurement track at the Mechanical Engineering Campus and a newly developed skin cancer scanner. And Opticum will provide a new research building for collaboration between more than 100 researchers.

What will tomorrow's sustainable energy supply look like? And how can climate protection and security of supply go hand in hand? At Leibniz University Hannover, 300 researchers from seven faculties are collaborating to develop solutions for the future.

Leibniz University Hannover holds a leading international position in our six key research areas: Biomedical Research and Technology, Quantum Optics and Gravitational Physics, Optical Technologies, Production Engineering, Interdisciplinary Studies of Science and Energy Research. The film shows which topics the researchers in the various areas are studying.

Leibniz University Hannover has been conducting energy research for many years. The university contributes its research expertise in order to transform the energy system with sustainable energy sources. We introduce research collaborations, centres and facilities that work on these promising issues in videos.
