Basic research at the highest level: this is the goal pursued by the Max Planck Society (MPS) and thus by every single Max Planck Institute.

Marion tiedtke max planck biography book The Board of Trustees is composed of members of the Max Planck Society and key players from politics, commerce, science and media. They are nominated for six years by the President of the Max Planck Society at the proposal of the respective institute's management. The number of board members depends on the size of the institute.

Basic research that is prospective as well as efficient are the milestones for excellent research at the Max Planck Institutes. The demand for efficiency is further enhanced by the fact that the MPS and the individual MPIs are financed by public funds. Out of this special responsibility for transparency, but also due to its own claim to excellence, the MPS has founded the evaluation body " Scientific Advisory Board" and anchored it in its statutes as a permanent body.

Composition of the Advisory Board

The Scientific Advisory Board is compulsory for every Max Planck Institute.

Until the committee can hold its first meeting, some organizational work needs to be done for the appointment of the memerbs.

The institutes identify renowned international experts in the relevant research areas. The institutes then propose several experts as committee members for each vacant position on the Advisory Board. After detailed discussion and possibly further proposals, the Vice President sends his list of recommendations to the President of the MPG.

Based on these recommendations, the President nominates the members of the Advisory Board for the respective institute. The members perform their duties on an honorary basis.

In order to achieve rotation within the committee, members are appointed for a maximum of six years. Half of the board will be replaced after three years in order tointroduce new momentum.

An exchange between experienced and new members is consistently encouraged.

Tasks

Recommendations on organization and resources, as well as the reorientation or change of institute activities - these are the main tasks of the Advisory Board. In order to implement these recommendations and appraisals, the members of the Advisory Board meet every two years for several days directly on site to inform themselves about research in the respective institute.

In preparation and as a basis for the on-site evaluation, the board members receive a written research report from the institute. This report provides information about:

• Structure and organization of the institute
• The institute's research program and its departments
• Personnel structure, budget, etc.

Board members are provided with further information on-site through lectures, discussions and poster exhibitions presented by the respective scientists.

Basic research that is prospective as well as efficient are the milestones for excellent research at the Max Planck Institutes. The demand for efficiency is further enhanced by the fact that the MPS and the individual MPIs are financed by public funds.

Following this evaluation, the Advisory Board writes a corresponding report. Results and evaluations are summarized and recommendations and advice are given. The report is addressed to the President of the MPS. The institutes receive the report for comment and for the implementation of the measures by the President. In this way, the efficiency and excellence of basic research is regularly put to the test and transparency is established.
