In the Nano-Bioanalytik-Zentrum Münster (NBZ) , Higtech companies develop products as well as analytical methods and devices for characterizing nanomaterials in biological samples. At the interface between basic research and industrial application, the NBZ closes the value chain in the Münster Nanobioanalytics Cluster. The center is also an example of the state strategy for progress. NRW of the Ministry of Science NRW. The European Union and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia have funded the new building, which opened in January 2013, with more than ten million euros .

Buildings and Infrastructure

The NBZ was realized according to a design by the Berlin architects Volker Staab . Several physics, biology and chemistry units are located on a total of 1,700 square meters of rentable office and laboratory space. The companies based here can access special equipment worth six million euros on a rental basis. She also supports a biomedical technology center of the Medical Faculty of the Westphalian Wilhelms University in the development and market analysis of new products. The building infrastructure also takes vibration-free floors into account for precise measuring activities. The construction of the three-story NBZ cost a total of 16.2 million euros. In addition to the 3.8 million euros in funding from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia and 6.4 million euros from the EU , the city of Münster and the Münster Economic Development Corporation each invested 1.5 million euros in the NBZ.

history

The NBZ was initiated by the Society for Bioanalytics Münster. Together with affiliated companies, the initiative developed an initial scientific concept and a practical design for the use of the building. The idea is based on the addition of a center for application-oriented companies to the basic research at the Münster nanobiotechnology site. The network work, which is oriented towards nanobioanalytics, enables the solution of complex bioanalytical issues in the medical, pharmaceutical, food and environmental industries in the areas of research and development, quality assurance and production management.

Location and scientific environment

The nano-bioanalytics center is located at the western tip of the Münster Science Park. In addition to the NBZ, the Center for Nanotechnology (CeNTech) , the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine , the European Institute for Molecular Imaging (EIMI) and the Technologiehof with Technologieförderung Münster GmbH and technology-oriented companies are also located here. In addition, the Center for Soft Nanoscience (SON) at the University of Münster is being built next to the NBZ. In addition, the physical, chemical, medical and pharmaceutical institutes of the Westphalian Wilhelms University and the Münster University Hospital shape the scientific environment. Next door are the Münster Electrochemical Energy Technology (MEET) battery research center of the University of Münster and the Münster University of Applied Sciences .
