Each year, Nobel Prize laureates meet with young researchers from around the world at the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting to foster scientific exchange across generations. Participation in this renowned event is by invitation only and recognizes outstanding young scientists from a range of disciplines.
Following the 74th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting, which took place from 29 June to 4 July 2025 and focused on chemistry, 18 selected participants joined a one-week study tour through Baden-Württemberg organized by Baden-Württemberg International. As part of this program, the group visited the University of Stuttgart on 8 July 2025.
The visit began with a welcome by Dr. Wolfgang Holtkamp, Senior Advisor for International Affairs at the University of Stuttgart, followed by an introduction to the Faculty of Chemistry by Prof. Cosima Stubenrauch, Dean of the Faculty. She presented an overview of current research activities, including the CRC 1333, among other interdisciplinary projects.
Afterwards, Prof. Deven Estes, Deputy Spokesperson and Prinicipal Investigator of CRC 1333, guided the visitors through the laboratories. The tour provided insights into ongoing research within the Collaborative Research Center and offered an opportunity for exchange on topics related to catalysis and molecular materials.
