The research group uses infrared interferometry to investigate the physical properties of young stars, stars in later stages of development and active galactic nuclei in the visual and infrared spectral region.

Mithilfe von Computersimulationen und Prototypen entwickeln Max-Planck-Forscher die Kommunikation der Roboter untereinander weiter. Die Forscher des MPI für biologische Kybernetik in Tübingen befassen sich mit fliegenden Multi-Roboter-Systemen. Die Quadrokopter oder Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, UAVs, fliegen in Formationen zusammen. Solche Roboter könnten Anwendung in der Medizin oder auch bei Katastrophen, etwa nach einem Erdbeben, finden.
Es ist etwa vorstellbar, eine Hand an den fliegenden
Eugene W. Myers never attended a biology course. But despite this fact, he has made a career for himself in this field, and in developing a computer program, made a major contribution to decoding the human genome. The bioinformatician has recently become Director at the the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, and the Klaus-Tschira Chair of the Systems Biology Center in Dresden. Here, he and his team will develop new light microscopes and computer programs to analyze the images produced by them.
On the other hand, he acquired insights into various
A salt formed due to corrosion on a restored artwork features a structure that is known from the world of biology.

The biomechanical properties of the Cupiennius salei spider’s venomous fang ensures it has the optimum structure. This was discovered by a team working with Y. Politi at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in a biophysical simulation on a model of a fang.
If, on the other hand, the natural fang is damaged,
A model describing the water absorption of wood could contribute to the development of new wood preservatives.

A team around M. Reichstein from the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry has investigated the retention and turnover time of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. They discovered that ecosystems store more carbon dioxide on land than previously thought.
