the Alfred Wegner Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) has been breeding lobsters for years and has developed a special hatchery system. The animals and their habitats have been

life cycles. Our research covers three main areas: Stress physiology: We use decapod crustaceans (lobsters, shrimps, and crabs) as model systems to study how early life stages cope with climate driven changes

areas, using ecological key species (e.g. the native European oyster Ostrea edulis, the European lobster Homarus gammarus) as model organisms. We are investigating physiological quality of Ostrea edulis

AWI holds patents like e.g.: Patent for the production of kill-free sturgeon Patent for juvenile lobster husbandry Bionic Lightweight Design The anchor group bionic lightweight design explores the principles
