The Dresden Center for Intelligent Materials is an independent lab settled at TU Dresden. It is founded with the purpose of establishing complementary competencies and developing promising future research areas.

The Lab funds young and ambitious investigators towards interdisciplinary research at breakthrough scientific areas. It initially consists of two interdisciplinary research teams, Hierarchical Topologies and Materials Informatics, supported by mentors and various associated researchers from TU Dresden and abroad. We are teams with flat hierarchies and an open, startup-like atmosphere. Our mission is to push the limits of material sciences and engineering by synergizing methods from other disciplines. We are committed to open science and transparency. Join us on our journey!
