The institute mainly carries out basic research in the field of aquatic ecology. The overarching research goal is to understand the evolutionary adaptations of freshwater organisms and the resulting consequences under the influence of climate change and increasing human use. The focus ranges from bacteria to fish to examine patterns and processes of ecological and evolutionary relevance. In addition to basic research, applied research is also carried out at the research institute. The water monitoring and the determination of water quality / water quality are not part of the tasks of the institute.
