Delphine Van Inghelandt has led a joint research group between IPK and JKI for over a year. Now is the time for an on-site visit with the scientist working on the potato of tomorrow in Groß Lüsewitz.

The new 'Chromosome Biology 2026' calendar, now available to download from the IPK Leibniz Institute website, offers fascinating insights into the world of chromosomes.

Just in time for Christmas, the latest edition of the IPK Journal has been published. As always, it contains a variety of articles about the research at IPK. Topics covered include potato research at the Groß Lüsewitz site and a new discourse project by IPK and the Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle.

The event featured keynote speakers from Germany, Denmark and Switzerland, as well as a laudatory speech on one’s own behalf and a Star Wars parody concerning the IPK Leibniz Institute’s Galactic Genebank. The farewell symposium for Evelin Willner, Andreas Börner and Frank Blattner at the end of November certainly had plenty of highlights and surprises to offer.
