Tree Bark as a Material of the Future: TUM@Freising Invites You to Lindenkeller
With TUM@Freising, a lecture takes center stage that connects science, design, and sustainability in an informative and inspiring way. On September 29, 2026, Prof. Michaela Eder will speak at Lindenkeller Freising about the sustainable use of tree bark - a topic that sharpens the perspective on forests, materials, and resources.
When Waste Becomes a Material
The TUM@Freising lecture series acts as a bridge between research and city society. According to TUM School of Life Sciences, researchers present their topics in an understandable manner, and dialogue is explicitly encouraged afterwards. It is in this context that the special quality of this evening lies: it opens up an artistic experience of thinking, where material, form, and function interact.
Tree bark is not presented as waste material here, but as a starting point for an aesthetic and technical re-evaluation. The lecture leads into that zone where innovation and perception come together: sustainable material use, functional surfaces, resource conservation, and the question of how future-proof applications arise from natural structures.
Science in an Understandable, Lively Form
Prof. Michaela Eder holds the Chair of Wood Science and Functionalization at TUM. TUM categorizes her work within a research field that considers the entire value chain of wood - from its origin in the forest to material technology, reuse, and recycling strategies. This gives the topic a clear scientific depth while also providing a strong cultural-historical dimension.
For visitors, a special exhibition atmosphere of listening is created: not a classic museum space, but a place of cultural education where knowledge appears like a carefully curated installation. The connection of research, lecture, and discussion creates an aesthetic experience that goes far beyond mere knowledge transfer.
Lindenkeller as a Space for Encounter
Lindenkeller in Freising has been a fixed cultural venue in the city for many years. The upper hall is wheelchair accessible, and its location at Veitsmüllerweg 2, 85354 Freising makes it easily reachable for a broad audience. The event begins at 19:00, following the established format of the series; an entry from 18:30 is common, and registration is not required according to TUM.
Especially in Lindenkeller, a scientific evening unfolds its special effect. The proximity to the audience, the open discussion situation, and the focus on clarity create an atmosphere where research does not remain abstract but becomes concrete and tangible. This makes TUM@Freising a format that elegantly combines academic expertise and cultural participation.
An Evening for Everyone Who Wants to Rethink Material, Nature, and the Future
Anyone interested in sustainability, wood research, materials science, and the intersections of nature and design will find a content-rich and accessible lecture here. This date offers the rare opportunity to experience a current research topic in direct exchange with a TUM expert.
Conclusion: This evening promises a wise, inspiring view of the creative future of natural materials. TUM@Freising at Lindenkeller Freising invites you to rediscover tree bark as a raw material, research object, and impetus for sustainable thinking. A visit is worthwhile - for all those who want to not only understand science but experience it.
