  • Marine Biotechnology welcomes high-quality research papers presenting novel data on the biotechnological applications of aquatic organisms. The journal publishes papers in the areas of molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, cell biology, and biochemistry, and particularly encourages submissions of papers related to genome biology such as linkage mapping, large-scale gene discoveries, QTL analysis, physical mapping, and comparative and functional genome analysis.

  • Marine Biotechnologies in the Marine Value Chain, Marine Biology Station of Concarneau, France, 1-3 September 2009
    The marine living resources of the sea determine a large panel of direct and indirect economic activities. Their character of natural resources can represent a real asset in terms of innovation as well of quality and safety and their exploitation is likely to lead to the development of industries namely in the domains of food, feed, nutrients, cosmetics and in some specific cases of new therapeutic agents: in these domains, new markets are presently emerging.

  • SEAFOODplus was a very successful Integrated Research project supported by the EU under FP6 in the period 2004-2008. After the completion of the project a new, membership based SEAFOODplus research platform has been established with the purpose of promoting excellence in European seafood research, initiating new EU supported research projects and disseminate results at workshops and conferences. For more information please consult http://www.seafoodplus.org/. The SEAFOODplus research platform encourages participation in the ESF-COST Marine Biotechnology conference.
  • Aquaculture Europe 2010
    5-8 October 2010 - Porto, Portugal
    Following on from the highly successful Aquaculture Europe 2002 conference "SeafarmingToday and Tomorrow" held in Trieste, Aquaculture Europe 2010 will bring back the focus on the future of marine aquaculture in Europe. As in 2002, the conference comes at a time when the European Commission has published its Communication on the strategy for the development of European aquaculture. More...
  • ScienceAlert is the first and only website to cover the whole of Australasian science and to present its announced research outcomes to the public for free. Besides providing the latest news from Australasian universities and research institutions, the service provides quality feature articles and opinions from qualified Australasian scientific and science writers, a very extensive science events calendar and a specialised scientific jobs directory.

  • CIESM - The Mediterranean Science Commission
    The Commission, with headquarters in Monaco, has grown from the eight founding countries of its origin to 23 Member States today. These support a network of several thousand marine researchers, applying the latest scientific tools to better understand, monitor and protect a fast-changing, highly impacted Mediterranean Sea. Structured in six committees and various taskforces, CIESM runs expert workshops, collaborative programs and regular congresses, delivering authoritative, independent advice to national and international agencies.
