Materials Science is at the core of addressing some of the world’s most pressing challenges:
Sustainable energy, digital transformation, resource efficiency, and health resilience.
The Center for the Science of Materials Berlin (CSMB) was founded with the goal of fostering innovation and excellence at the intersections of disciplines, institutions, and sectors.
Over the past years, the CSMB has evolved into a vibrant hub of interdisciplinary research. We have expanded our collaborations, launched new initiatives in research and education, and opened our doors to the broader public through science communication and outreach. With a growing network of institutional partners, cutting-edge infrastructure, and a dedicated team, we are laying the foundation for a more sustainable and inclusive scientific future.

We are proud of the achievements documented in this report and are grateful to all who contributed.
