The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology

The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology, located in Germany, is a research center dedicated to studying how species change over time and adapt to their environments. It explores the genetic, ecological, and evolutionary processes that drive biodiversity. The institute employs scientists from various disciplines—such as biology, genetics, and ecology—to understand life's diversity, evolution, and the factors influencing survival and reproduction. Through experiments and field research, it aims to uncover fundamental principles of evolution, contributing to scientific knowledge that can inform conservation, medicine, and understanding of life on Earth.
