Science

Intensive research is carried out in and around the LebensPhasenHaus – qualitative and quantitative, interdisciplinary and translateral.This includes everything from basic research through testing and application to extensive evaluation studies. This is what one particular group of scientists stands for – the same scientists who gave the impetus to the LebensPhasenHaus and who have ever since been coordinating and ensuring the construction and running of the house. Whether geriatric medicine and nursing sciences, natural sciences, ethics and cultural sciences or computer science, economics and social sciences – the University of Tübingen has approximately 28,000 students, and more than 500 professorships and 4,500 scientists, who unite a multitude of scientific disciplines. These experts also participate in numerous research projects in the LebensPhasenHaus.
