At the TUM@Freising lecture series on Thursday, September 30, 2021, Prof. Klaus Richter from the Chair of Wood Science at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) will explain how wood can be optimized through innovative technology and what potential this offers for climate protection. Wood is renewable, multifaceted and multifunctional. These three properties made the raw material one of the most important materials for mankind for centuries.
