In the cover story we introduce Julia Wienold. When it comes to patents and inventions at HZB, there's no getting around her. In the cover story on page 4, you can find out what you have to consider and which is the most profitable patent from HZB.
In the next few years, many employees in Germany will retire. How do you say goodbye to a fulfilling professional life? That's what we asked Christian Jung, who successfully completed many projects as a former head of department. Now he is on his way to retire from professional life step by step and shares his perspective with us (page 8).
Our society is facing enormous challenges due to climate change. For the aviation sector, the development of sustainable aviation fuels plays an important role. How can aviation be decarbonised? That's what we wanted to find out in an interview with the managers of the Care-O-Sene project on page 12.
