Research on small practices while thinking in big: since 2005 networked CENIDE research and teaching activities dealing with Nanoscience at the University of Duisburg-Essen. To celebrate the first successful decade, a great anniversary celebration on July 15, 2015 at the Campus Duisburg was held.

In a celebratory mood (from left to right): Dr. Tobias Teckentrup (Managing Director of CENIDE), Prof. Dr. Axel Lorke (Founding Director), Dr. Marion Franke (Coordinator NETZ) and Prof. Dr. Christof Schulz (Scientific Director of CENIDE).

Around 200 guests from science, industry and politic came to celebrate 10 year CENIDE anniversary in the cozy atmosphere.

From the foundation to the anniversary year: Dr. Marion Franke and Prof. Dr. Axel Lorke took the public on an entertaining journey through the time.

Prof. Dr. Ulrich Radtke, Rector of the University of Duisburg-Essen, acknowledged the importance of CENIDE for the Nanoscience.
