SAVE THE DATE: Adlershofer Science Forum on 11.11.2014 with Poster Session
The Adlershof Science Forum is encouraging exchange among scientists in Adlershof.
Please save the date to participate on 11. November 2014 at „Adlershof Science Forum“ (AFF) of Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and IGAFA. The event is meant to encourage exchange and communication between scientists working at Adlershof.
Registration and the call for posters is open until 30.10.2014 here. The best poster will be rewarded with 500 Euro. We really want young scientists and students to attend the event ! Please encourage them to participate.
Topics in 2014 are:
- Big Data
- hybrid materials
- Interfaces and boundary surfaces
We are planning three Workshops with short talks and two poster sessions. We will serve pancakes at 11.11 as in some parts of Germany, carnival is starting.
You can register and upload your Poster (DIN A0) until 30. October 2014 here
Your abstract is needed until 3. November 2014.
With best regards
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Anke Kaysser-Pyzalla, Speaker of the management board of IGAFA
Prof. Dr. Peter A. Frensch, Vice president research, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

- Solar experts meet in BerlinThe sixth tandemPV Workshop will take place in Berlin, Germany from June 17-19, 2026, hosted by Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin.
- Magnetic field during catalyst synthesis triples ammonia yieldApplying an external magnetic field during the synthesis of CoFe₂O₄ electrocatalysts triples the ammonia yield during electrocatalytic conversion. The magnetic field alters the surface states of the spinel oxide thin films, making catalytically active sites more accessible. In the journal 'Advanced Functional Materials', a team led by Marcel Risch at HZB and Sanjay Mathur at University of Cologne demonstrates a scalable strategy for developing next-generation electrocatalysts for efficient and sustainable chemical production.
- Materials chemistry shapes the future of catalysisThe synthesis of materials can serve as a tool for developing smart, adaptive electrocatalysts. This rapidly evolving field of research involves in-situ analytics, data-driven discoveries and autonomous robotics. These new approaches could accelerate the discovery of long-lasting and efficient catalysts for future energy conversion and the decarbonisation of the chemical industry. A recent article by Dr Prashanth Menezes and his team in the renowned journal Angewandte Chemie provides an overview of this research.
