Public Outreach
Dialogue between science and society is a high priority at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research. The institute aims to communicate scientific findings to the public in a transparent, understandable, and sustainable manner. To this end, the institute develops and implements its own communication and event formats and is also involved in external formats and in the public relations work of the Max Planck Society. This page provides an overview of the diverse formats we use to showcase our research.
