The Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology is located on Beutenberg Campus in Jena, Germany. It was founded in March 1996 and is one of 80 institutes of the Max Planck Society (Max Planck Gesellschaft). Chemical ecology examines the role of chemical signals that mediate the interactions between plants, animals, and their environment, as well as the evolutionary and behavioral consequences of these interactions. The managing director of the institute is Jonathan Gershenzon. About 175 scientists, among them many PhD candidates and students, do their research in five departments and further independent research groups.

The Beutenberg Campus is a science and research site situated in southern Jena, Germany. The physician Hans Knöll founded the first biomedical research institute at Beutenberg in 1950. From 1970, it was run as the Central Institute of Microbiology and Experimental Therapy (Zentralinstitut für Mikrobiologie und experimentelle Therapie - ZIMET) of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR. From 1982 institutes focussing on physics were also set up on the site. Following German reunification in 1990, a multidisciplinary science and research centre was created in response to a recommendation by the German Council of Science and Humanities. The campus currently hosts nine research institutes. These include three Leibniz Association institutes, two Max Planck Society institutes, one Fraunhofer Society institute, one institute funded by the State of Thuringia, as well as Friedrich Schiller University institutes. Two start-up centres, the Technology and Innovation Park Jena and the Bioinstrumentation centre, host more than 50 companies. In addition, Wacker Biotech GmbH has established biotechnology production facilities on campus. Beutenberg Campus offers an interdisciplinary knowledge and technology platform for work in innovative research. It is a competence centre for research in terms of the guidelines Life Science meets Physics. The areas of biology, natural product chemistry, environmental research and medicine complement the physics of optics, photonics and optical microsystems. Over 2300 people currently work on the Campus, more than 1000 are scientists. German and foreign students pursue their PhDs in association with one of the seven international research schools and in close cooperation with the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena.

University of Applied Sciences Jena (UAS Jena) (German: Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena (EAH Jena)) was founded on 1 October 1991 as one of the first institutions of higher education of its kind in the newly founded federal states of Germany. Since the beginning of summer semester 2012, it bears the name of the entrepreneur Ernst Abbe. The university is characterized above all by its high practical orientation and research strength. Their slogan is: Innovation for quality of life. Health, precision, sustainability & networking!
