The Hereon is part of the Helmholtz Association.
Data science talents can conduct research at the center with the following programs.
The Helmholtz Center Hereon
The Helmholtz Center Hereon is dedicated to research on sustainable strategies for climate resilience, coastal protection and sustainable development. Around 1,000 employees develop new materials, technologies and concepts for mobility, innovative energy systems and the protection of coastal and marine environments. The combination of experimental research, modeling and artificial intelligence is creating practical approaches to overcoming climate change. With locations in Geesthacht, Teltow and other sites, Hereon is one of the leading non-university research institutions in Schleswig-Holstein.
Main research areas:
- High-performance materials for sustainable technologies
- Environmentally friendly mobility and energy systems
- Biomaterials for medicine
- Climate change, coastal protection and marine research
- Digital twins and simulation-based research
