Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees supports the Institute and fosters links between the public and the MPI-CBG. The members of the Board of Trustees are representatives from local politics, industry, science, and the media, and they are appointed by the President of the Max Planck Society. The board meets once a year at the institute, and the Managing Director reports about news, outreach activities, and the latest developments in general.
