Max Planck Fellows and External Scientific Members

Max Planck Fellows and External Scientific Members

The MPIB not only cooperates with universities in Germany, but also with research institutions all over the world.

For research to be successful, the transfer of knowledge and new ideas are essential. Therefore, the Max Planck Society (MPG) strengthens collaboration between its institutes and the universities through different programs: It recruits excellent university professors who as Max Planck Fellows lead a research group within the MPG, parallel to their work at the university. The appointment of emeritus professors is also possible. Cooperative projects with external institutions promote scientific exchange as well.
