As electromobility, renewable energy systems, and portable electronics continue to grow, the demand for efficient energy storage technologies is increasing rapidly. However, performance alone is no longer sufficient. The environmental footprint of batteries and supercapacitors is becoming a decisive factor. The future of energy storage must be not only powerful, but also sustainable, recyclable, and resource-efficient.

Antibiotic resistance is on the rise worldwide. Even well-established drugs are increasingly failing against dangerous pathogens such as MRSA, Klebsiella pneumoniae or Candida albicans. The development of novel antimicrobial systems is therefore more urgent than ever.
