How to find our institute
Welcome to the MPI MiS
Fundamental questions arising from natural and engineering sciences and economics have always inspired mathematicians to search for new mathematical structures and methods. The interaction between mathematics and the sciences forms the central point of research at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences (MiS) in Leipzig.

Making optimal use of mathematical research data (12.07.2021)
Our institute will be part of the "Mathematical Research Data Initiative" MaRDI. This consortium aims to set standards for certified mathematical research data, the design of confirmable workflows, and it provides services for the scientific community.
