organisation profile
- A total of about 800 employees are involved in coastal and materials
research at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht in Geesthacht and in
Teltow near Berlin.
In
line with the slogan "Science creates benefits", the employees are,
among other things, studying future storm surges and analysing the eyes
of hurricanes. The new materials and welding methods that the
researchers create are making cars and planes lighter, and that in turn
helps to save fuel and conserve the environment. The scientists in
Geesthacht are using specially developed plastics to search for
environmentally friendly sources of energy and develop materials that
are of great benefit to medicine.
