Abstract
After the recent discovery of the Higgs boson the so-called Standard Model of particle physics has become a complete and mathematically consistent theory, which – at least in principle – could be valid up to extremely high energies. In this talk I will discuss, why research in particle physics is still well motivated, although the Higgs boson is discovered. I will consider on the one hand the theoretical problems of the standard model, on the other hand, I will discuss experimental hints, why the standard model cannot be the final theory of the fundamental interactions.
