Evaluation is integral to successful quality management in science. The MPG is convinced that only scientists with excellent expertise in the same or similar field - peers - are in a position to completely assess the quality of basic research. The evaluation by peers is organized through Scientific Advisory Boards (SABs) constituted for each Institute. The SAB usually convenes on site every three years.
