How does life develop until birth? This is what we deal with in embryology. The natural history objects in our embryological collection, which includes 3,000 historical wet specimens of 600 vertebrate species, are correspondingly rare and scientifically valuable. These also include specimens of extremely rare and difficult-to-access species, including the aardvark, various primates and the extinct pouched wolf.
In the course of our museum evolution, we are opening up this unique collection in the research cluster "Embryology". With the aim of exploiting its potential for science and research, for nature conservation and for the public! We use the latest imaging techniques and 3D technologies, for example computer tomography. In this way, we not only make the objects digitally accessible to everyone, but can even look inside them - without destroying the unique specimens.
A film team accompanies the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin on its way into the future. On KZitem you can join our Museum Evolution!
The earth is changing. Every second. For 4.56 billion years. But this change is happening too fast lately! This is shown by the speed of species extinction and climate change.
We are making the museum fit for new challenges, also structurally. As a place where, in future, a million visitors a year will be able to engage in an exchange about the preservation of our natural foundations of life. And as a place where more than 200 scientists are already researching life and the earth. We are catapulting the 30 million objects in our collection into the future - analogue and digital. For all of us! So that we can work together on solutions - for nature and the cohesion of society.
