At IPCHS, we pay great attention to research work, which is the basis for all interventions on cultural heritage. Our research is published in reputable journals and professional publications. In addition, we try to bring our knowledge about heritage and its conservation to the public through various project tasks.
Research Institute (RI)
Within the Center for Conservation also the Research Institute operates. The key area of activity of the Research Institute (RI) of the IPCHS is heritage science. Heritage science is a unique, interdisciplinary science with distinctly social objectives, contributing to the conservation, documentation, interpretation and management of heritage and leading to the co-creation of knowledge. The RI's research staff therefore includes chemists, biotechnologists, a physicist and an academic restorer.
