What does the loss of species mean for our daily lives? What consequences does it have for the stability of our ecosystems, food production, and our health? Attend the fascinating lecture by Prof. Sebastian T. Meyer from the Chair of Terrestrial Ecology. His research spans from tropical forests to grasslands, farmland, and urban areas. This allows him to provide concrete recommendations on how we can all contribute to preserving biodiversity—whether in urban planning, agriculture, or as private individuals.

Admission starts at 6.30 pm and admission is free. Prior registration is not necessary.

Series of events TUM@Freising

Science - explained for everyone: Meet researchers from the TUM School of Life Sciences in person and find out what they are working on. A subsequent discussion after each lecture is expressly encouraged, because science thrives on the exchange of opinions.

The aim of the event is a lively encounter - citizens can get to know the people at "their" TUM better and learn more at the same time, while science receives valuable impulses for its research work through direct feedback from the public. The close cooperation between the city of Freising and the TUM Weihenstephan campus, which has existed for many years, is now becoming tangible in the city and region.
