Board of Directors
The LIV is led by an executive board consisting of the scientific and administrative directors advised by three deputy directors.

The office of the scientific director and his or her deputy is usually run by a department head in five-year cycles. Both positions are proposed by the scientific council and appointed by the supervisory board. The position of Administrative Director and her deputy is appointed by the supervisory board.
The board has its own rules of procedure and meets weekly.
The consolidated leadership by the LIV’s scientific and administrative directors accelerates decision making processes and clearly defines its public front.
