Comment: Template:infobox company can help you in creating a table for information. Also, your draft, containing a large amount of unnecessary details, as well as WP:PEACOCK terms that only promotes the company is not allowed on Wikipedia. Additionally, while it doesn't seem to meet WP:ORG, we require that sources should be/meet WP:SIRS and not a primary source including the company's website. Safari ScribeEdits!

The German Astrobiological Society (German: Deutsche Astrobiologische Gesellschaft, DAbG) is a collaborative scientific umbrella organization of individuals in the German-speaking region engaged in the field of astrobiology..[1] It comprises more than 100 scientists involved in astrobiological research or related disciplines or who have an interest in it independent of their own field of research.[2]
Background
editAstrobiology explores the origin, evolution, occurrence, and future of life in the universe.[3][4] As a multidisciplinary science, it integrates various fields such as biology, chemistry, geology, paleontology, space research, planetology, astronomy, and astrophysics. Astrobiological research and teaching are conducted at numerous universities and non-university institutions in the German-speaking region.[1][5] Against this backdrop, the DAbG was founded in 2016 and has since aimed to network astrobiologically oriented research groups and increase the international visibility of astrobiology in Germany and beyond.[6][7]
Goals and Activities
editThe DAbG promotes scientific information exchange and collaboration among its members with the aim of advancing astrobiological research in the German-speaking region and representing it internationally. This is achieved through various measures and activities[1]:
- An annual workshop at universities and institutes in the German-speaking region focusing on astrobiological research[8]
- Working group meetings focusing on specific aspects of astrobiology.
- Support for young scientists through the provision of travel grants and reduced membership fees.
- Active participation in other national and international societies, committees, and commissions, particularly in the European Astrobiology Network Association (EANA).
Research Areas and Working Groups
editThe scientific activities of DAbG members cover a broad spectrum of astrobiological research, including studies in areas such as planetary formation[9], icy moons[10], Mars[11], habitability[12], prebiotic chemistry[13], and biosignatures[14]. To better network the work of research groups active in related fields and focus the society's public relations efforts, the DAbG has established several working groups that meet regularly:[15]
- Prebiotic Chemistry: This working group addresses fundamental questions at the interface between chemistry and biology preceding a living system.
- Ocean Worlds and Icy Moons: This working group focuses on habitability and the search for life on the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn as well as potential other ocean worlds in the Solar System and beyond.
- Physical Foundations of Astrobiology: This working group investigates the physical aspects underlying both biological and non-biological evolution.
- Young Scientists in the DAbG: This working group provides a platform for all astrobiologists in training during their bachelor's and master's studies and doctoral phase. An important goal is to better network young scientists working in astrobiology in the German-speaking region.
- Public Relations: The tasks of this working group include promoting the collaboration of the DAbG with other non-profit organizations, companies, and individuals. Additionally, the working group maintains the online presence of the DAbG.
