Max Planck Society
The Max Planck Society is an independent, non-profit, high-quality research organization founded in 1948. The organization is engaged in promoting basic research in its institutions within new and innovative areas that German universities are unable to accommodate.
The Max Planck Society is known for its excellent and cutting-edge research that attracts major scientific talents. Such research is made possible through the organization’s effective and profitable institute structure, which is continually modified to accommodate the current range of research. The organization lives by a collection of principles stating that research determines institute structure; therefore, a prominent researcher can greatly influence which areas an institute chooses to invest in.
