Scientific advisors

In the pursuit of excellence, MQV actively seeks the advice and feedback of top international experts, both in the form of a Scientific Advisory Board and through individual outstanding scientists.

Scientific Advisory Board

The Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) consists of internationally recognized external experts. It regularly evaluates the research activities within MQV. The results of the SAB meetings are used by the Executive Board, the Scientific Director and the Bavarian State Ministries in making strategic decisions regarding present and future MQV projects.
The independent evaluation by the SAB provides quality assurance of the MQV projects and public accountability for the appropriate and effective use of funds.
