Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology
The Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology[1] is located on Beutenberg Campus[2] in Jena, Germany. It was founded in March 1996 and is one of 80 institutes of the Max Planck Society (Max Planck Gesellschaft).[3] Chemical ecology examines the role of chemical signals that mediate the interactions between plants, animals, and their environment, as well as the evolutionary and behavioral consequences of these interactions. The managing director of the institute is Jonathan Gershenzon.
About 175 scientists, among them many PhD candidates and students, do their research in five departments and further independent research groups.
- Department of Molecular Ecology (acting director: Sarah O'Connor)
- Department of Biochemistry (Jonathan Gershenzon)[4]
- Department of Evolutionary Neuroethology (Bill S. Hansson)[5]
- Department of Insect Symbiosis (Martin Kaltenpoth)[6]
- Department of Natural Product Biosynthesis (Sarah O'Connor)[7]
- Emeritus Group Entomology (David G. Heckel)
- Max Planck Research Group Predators and Toxic Prey (Hannah Rowland)[8]
- Max Planck Research Group Extreme Events (Huw S. Groucutt)[9]

- Research Group Olfactory Coding (Silke Sachse)[11]
- Research Group Plant Defense Physiology (Axel Mithöfer)[12]
- NMR Group (Christian Paetz)[13]
- Mass Spectrometry Group (Rayko Halitschke)[14]

International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS)
The International Max Planck Research School "The Exploration of Ecological Interactions with Molecular and Chemical Techniques"[16] is a graduate program jointly organized by the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology, the Friedrich Schiller University Jena and the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology in Jena. The IMPRS spokespersons are Sarah O'Connor and Ralf Oelmüller. The IMPRS is part of the "Jena School for Microbial Communication",[17] which was founded in 2006 and consists of three graduate schools.
