Research for the Future - Mission Statement of the Max Planck Society

“Two aspects contribute to the exceptional position of the Max Planck Society within the German research system: the scientific members have achieved internationally esteemed research results ..., and the Society enjoys considerable freedom in employing the institutional basic financing it receives ... ” The International Commission on System Evaluation of the Max Planck Society and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation, DFG) (1999)
“Insight must precede application.” Max Planck (1919)
“Discoveries are usually made by taking, not the simplest path, but rather the complicated one; the simple cases do not show themselves until later ... It is indeed the case that I have often found something other than what I had sought.” Otto Hahn (1962)
