|  Résume | We will discuss two results about the existence of closed minimal surfaces in 
non-compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds. 
In the first part, we will prove the following dichotomy: either all bounded 
geometry surface groups admit a minimal surface, or there exists an example 
with a minimal fibration. 
In the second part we will discuss minimal surface existence for hyperbolic 
handlebodies. 
Based in joint work with Baris Coskunuzer, Zheng Huang and Ben Lowe.
