This year's Scientists' Day will take place on 22 July 2025 in the Alte Aula (Lahntor 3). This year's focus is on creativity and innovation in the academic system.

Creativity is regarded as the central driving force of scientific knowledge. But how much room does it really have in today's academic system - between competition for third-party funding, the logic of applications and the pressure to excel? How can innovation potential be better recognised, promoted and utilised? And what does this mean for the scientists themselves?

On Scientists' Day, we want to talk about how creative processes in research can be supported, where innovation potential may remain untapped - and what needs to change in order to create space for new ideas. You can expect an exciting programme with diverse perspectives, space for questions and exchange.

You will find more information and the program here.
