The Fasci­nat­ing Poten­tial of Light: From Photo­syn­the­sis to Memory Research

The Hector Fellow Academy Sympo­sium 2023 was dedicated to the topic "Light in Biology — Photo­syn­the­sis, Visual Processes, and Neural Appli­ca­tions". Together with Peter Hegemann, Profes­sor at the Insti­tute of Biology, Humboldt Univer­sity Berlin, Athina Zouni, Profes­sor at the Insti­tute of Biology, Humboldt Univer­sity Berlin, Lauren Summer-Rooney, Emmy Noether Junior Group Leader at the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, and Hannah Monyer, Profes­sor at Heidel­berg Univer­sity Hospi­tal and at German Cancer Research Center, the audience dived into the fasci­nat­ing world of light. The evening was moder­ated by Dr. Philip Häusser, TV presen­ter for programs such as Terra X Lesch & Co and author.

In this video, discover how light enables photo­syn­the­sis and life on our planet, how animals perceive their environ­ment, and how we can study our brain by using light.
