ABOUT THE GROUP
Our research group is located at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and affiliated with the University of Heidelberg. Our research is focused on the synthesis and application of biofunctional materials, surfaces and nanoparticles.

On June 24. 2017, KIT invited for an Open Day. In total over 35.000 people visited the large research facilities in campus north. The KIT open day was a full success and we appreciated the possibility to present our work.
Our group presented functionalized superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic surfaces and array patterns of different geometries. Visitors could interactively test different surface wettabilities by pipetting water onto the different functionalized substrates. Thanks to all the visitors for the interest and the many questions! Our group members were enthusiastically organizing the event and enjoyed the open day very much.
