PROFILE INNOVATIONS AT INTERFACES The Fraunhofer Institute for Inter facial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB develops and optimizes processes, plant s, produc t s, and technologies for the business areas of health, chemistr y and process industr y as well as environment and energy. We offer our customers research and development (R&D) along the entire material value chain, complemented by a broad range of analysis and testing ser vices. A s a result, we are a strong par tner for industrial companies and small or medium -sized companies in a wide range of industries, as well as for municipalities and special-purpose associations and for the EU, federal and state contract research. Application-oriented and interdisciplinary Competences Our overriding goal is the translation of scientiic and engi- neering research results into similarly economically eficient and sustainable processes and products for industrial applica- tion. Our strength lies in offering complete solutions from laboratory to pilot plant scale. Departments in Stuttgart Interfacial Engineering and Materials Science Molecular Biotechnology Physical Process Technology Environmental Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering Cell and Tissue Engineering More than ever, the success of new products and processes depends on interdisciplinary and constructive cooperation between natural sciences and engineering. Experts in the ields of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering work to- gether effectively at Fraunhofer IGB and its branches at Leuna, Straubing and Würzburg. Customers beneit from the syn- ergistic and multidisciplinary potential at our institute, which facilitates novel approaches and innovative solutions in areas Branches of the institute Fraunhofer Center for Chemical-Biotechnological Processes CBP, Leuna branch Bio, Electro, and Chemocatalysis BioCat, Straubing branch Translational Center “Regenerative Therapies for Oncology and Musculoskeletal Diseases”, Würzburg branch such as medical engineering, nanotechnology, downstream processing and environmental technology. Mission “At Fraunhofer IGB, we carry out application-oriented re- search according to the principles of good scientiic practice and on the basis of our competences and guiding principles in the areas of health, chemistry and process industry as well as environment and energy. With our innovations, we contribute to a sustainable development of the economy, society and the environment.” 1 0
