For EMBL, this work is a passion driven by infinite curiosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new permanent \u2018The World of Molecular Biology\u2019 exhibition will open to visitors in 2023 at EMBL\u2019s headquarters in Heidelberg. It will encourage people to actively engage with science and its relevance for everyday life \u2013 for example through fundamental insights into the development and prevention of cancer. The exhibition aims to inspire the next generation with EMBL&#8217;s passion for science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe exhibition will introduce the big and small questions we are trying to answer, evoke curiosity about the inner workings of life, and emphasise the relevance of basic research,\u201d said EMBL Director General Edith Heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The interactive bilingual exhibition will span 800 square meters in the new EMBL Imaging Centre, and was made possible through financial support from German public and private donors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When open, the exhibition will offer access through pre-booked guided tours for the public and for schools. Visitors will explore a vibrant discovery space that celebrates molecular biology in general with a special focus on EMBL\u2019s work, people and technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition will consist of three sections introducing the visitors to EMBL and its scientists (\u2018Spirit of EMBL\u2019), inviting them to embark on a journey of scale, exploring EMBL research from genes to ecosystems (\u2018Life is Amazing\u2019), and witnessing the power and beauty of state-of-the-art imaging technology (\u2018Seeing is Understanding\u2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, exhibition material will allow visitors to explore specific threads of interest, such as health and disease, evolution and society. These topics will also form the basis for special guided tours. Specifically, visitors can learn about different aspects of cancer: How are cutting-edge technologies used to fundamentally understand cancer? How are global research projects helping to decipher the development of tumours in individual patients? And how does this knowledge improve cancer prevention and treatment?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EMBL is grateful for financial support for \u2018The World of Molecular Biology\u2019 from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>H.W. &amp; J.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming the first visitors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bettina Stark-Watzinger, German Federal Minister of Education and Research, said: &#8220;Molecular biology influences our entire lives, from health to climate. This makes it all the more important to understand the underlying processes and recognise the opportunities. An interactive exhibition that conveys this in an understandable and quite literally tangible way is a great asset.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. h.c. Hans-Werner Hector added: \u201cResearch in a wide variety of areas influences all of our lives.

We are very excited about these special insights.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe not only want to support science, but also make it more accessible to the public. EMBL is a renowned research institute rich in tradition, and the new exhibition building is the perfect addition for science communication and education. The Carl Zeiss Foundation has its roots in microscopy and optics. This is why we are excited about the concept of the exhibition &#8216;Seeing is Understanding&#8217;, which successfully combines these elements,&#8221; explained Minister Theresia Bauer, Chair of the Foundation Administration of the Carl Zeiss Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"vf-divider\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"german\"><strong>\u2018Die Welt der Molekularbiologie\u2019&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Die&nbsp;neue Ausstellung wird voraussichtlich Mitte 2023 in Betrieb genommen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wissensdurst ist der Motor f\u00fcr neue Entdeckungen und menschlichen Fortschritt. Seit Generationen versuchen wir zu verstehen, wie das Leben, unsere K\u00f6rper und unser Planet funktionieren. F\u00fcr das Europ\u00e4ische Laboratorium f\u00fcr Molekularbiologie (EMBL) ist diese Arbeit eine Leidenschaft, die von unendlicher Neugierde angetrieben wird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201aDie Welt der Molekularbiologie\u2018, wird in 2023 am EMBL Hauptsitz in Heidelberg f\u00fcr Besucher*innen \u00f6ffnen. Die neue Dauerausstellung wird Besucher*innen dazu einladen, sich aktiv mit der Wissenschaft sowie deren Einfluss auf den Lebensalltag auseinanderzusetzen \u2013 zum Beispiel anhand fundamentaler Erkenntnisse zur Entstehung und Pr\u00e4vention von Krebserkrankungen. Die Ausstellung soll au\u00dferdem die n\u00e4chste Generation mit EMBLs Leidenschaft f\u00fcr die Wissenschaft inspirieren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Die Ausstellung wird die gro\u00dfen und kleinen Fragen, die wir beantworten m\u00f6chten, vorstellen. Sie soll darauf neugierig machen, wie das Leben auf kleinster Ebene funktioniert und die Bedeutung der Grundlagenforschung hervorheben,&#8221; sagte EMBL-Generaldirektorin Edith Heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die interaktive zweisprachige Ausstellung wird auf einer Fl\u00e4che von 800 Quadratmetern im neuen EMBL Imaging Centre pr\u00e4sentiert und wurde durch finanzielle Unterst\u00fctzung des Bundes, der Stadt Heidelberg und privater Spender erm\u00f6glicht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nach der Er\u00f6ffnung k\u00f6nnen Interessierte aus \u00d6ffentlichkeit und Schulen \u2018Die Welt der Molekularbiologie\u2018 in gebuchten F\u00fchrungen erkunden. Die Besucher*innen erwartet eine lebendige Ausstellungslandschaft voller interaktiver Exponate, die die molekularbiologische Forschung feiert und besonderen Fokus auf die Arbeit, die Menschen und die Technologien am EMBL legt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In den drei Bereichen der Ausstellung lernen die Besucher*innen das EMBL und seine Wissenschaftler*innen kennen (&#8216;Spirit of EMBL&#8217;), begeben sich auf eine Reise durch die biologischen Dimensionen und die entsprechende EMBL-Forschung von Genen bis hin zu \u00d6kosystemen (&#8216;Life is Amazing&#8217;) und erleben Leistung und Faszination hochmoderner Bildgebungstechnologien (&#8216;Seeing is Understanding&#8217;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dar\u00fcber hinaus bieten die Ausstellungsst\u00fccke die M\u00f6glichkeit, sich je nach Interesse tiefer mit speziellen Themen in Bereichen wie Krankheit und Gesundheit, Evolution und Gesellschaft zu befassen. Diese Themen werden auch Grundlage f\u00fcr spezielle F\u00fchrungen sein. Besucher*innen k\u00f6nnen sich insbesondere \u00fcber verschiedene Aspekte von Krebserkrankungen informieren: Wie werden modernste Technologien genutzt, um Krebs von Grund auf zu verstehen? Wie tragen globale Forschungsprojekte dazu bei, die von Patient zu Patient unterschiedliche Entstehungsgeschichte von Tumoren zu entziffern?
