At the beginning of 2026, a project was launched that focuses on the important contributions of botanical species conservation to natural climate protection. One of the project partners is the Botanical Garden at Osnabrück University.

The vast majority of the 45 million laying hens in Germany live in aviary systems. Together with the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, researchers from Osnabrück investigate how animal-friendly catching and loading can be implemented.

For two days, particularly committed and high-achieving students were recently guests in our department. The occasion: Lower Saxony's state seminar for the third round of the International Biology Olympiad.

For anyone who would like to get an impression of the research being conducted at Osnabrück Biology, there is now a new offer: a three-minute video featuring interviews with various members of our department.
