We were featured on the iconic TV show “Sendung mit der Maus“! Special Episode for the Day of German Unity

We’re proud to announce that our research was featured in the “Sendung mit der Maus”, one of Germany’s most beloved kids TV programs — and not just in any episode! Our contribution was selected for the special episode #DeineSendung and part of the special broadcast for the Day of German Unity on October 3rd.

Among many entries from across Germany, our project was selected as the winner and featured in the nationwide TV special. In the episode, we showed how it’s possible to create brilliant colors without pigments — inspired by butterflies and other natural structures — using only the right material design on the nanoscale.

Our segment appears around 20 minutes into the episode, and you can watch it here. For our international audience: the video is in German and without subtitles, so we’ve included a few screenshots below that capture some of the highlights from the show.
