“Türen auf mit der Maus” was the motto in the panOPTICUM on October 3rd, 2024. Young and elderly learned about persistence of color. Prof. Nicolas Vogel from the Chair of Particle Technology at the FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg explained how we can find out the secrets of non-fading colors from nature, for example from butterflies, and reconstruct them in the laboratory or on chocolate.

Special thanks goes to Nicolas Vogel, Giulia Magnabosco, Max Gmelch, Mika Scherffig, Erfan Khorsandi, and the chocolatier.
