The Laboratory for Heritage Science was founded to promote research in the field of cultural and natural heritage, in collaboration with national and international partners.

The analytical-imaging tools provided within the framework of the project enable the comprehensive characterization of archaeological finds and artefacts, supplementing the accelerator based analytical techniques used in our institute for decades. A further goal of the HSLab project is to significantly expand the range of archaeological finds that can be examined in the accelerator mass spectrometer (AMS) laboratory.
