Reliable scientific infrastructures often only become apparent when they come under pressure. ZB MED is responding to changes in the research and information landscape with a clear strategic focus, new initiatives and the targeted expansion of its services for a digital, data- and AI-driven scientific community.

The 2025 Annual Report illustrates how these developments are reflected in day-to-day work, projects and collaborations. It provides insights into key themes and challenges from the past year, presents selected projects and progress, and shows how ZB MED is actively shaping the future.

The Annual Report is published only online as an interactive one-pager. Alongside the text, you will find photo galleries, videos and interactive graphics with further information, figures and background details. Most of the report is written in German.

We warmly invite you to explore the 2025 Annual Report and hope you find it an engaging read – we hope you enjoy reading, viewing and scrolling through it!
