Serotonin is a neurotransmitter (messenger substance) that passes on information in our nervous system.
Its correct biochemical name is 5-hydroxytryptamine, or 5-HT for short.
Both reflecting the chemical character of the messenger substance and describing how it functions as a neurotransmitter, 5-HT is the perfect name for the activities of the Digital Hub Chemistry and Health, which links up organisations, industry, universities and startups through cooperation and the exchange of information.
The 5-HT Digital Hub Chemistry & Health is a central innovation platform that drives digital transformation in both sectors. As the preferred centre of excellence in this field, it aims to link all stakeholders together regionally, nationally and internationally.
