Activities
The Marine Biology research group is a scientific unit of the Ghent University.
Our mission is to understand the sea.
We are convinced that our marine research both leads to fundamental scientific insights in the ecology and evolution of marine ecosystems and contributes to the sustainable management and exploitation of ‘the last wilderness’.
We advise and offer the design and implementation of field sampling campaigns and both field and laboratory experiments, as well as on the maintenance and/or culture of selected marine benthic invertebrate model organisms.
Our laboratory is well equipped for sample treatment, data processing, and a wide variety of chemical and biological analyses.
Being a research laboratory, we discuss, develop and conceive a project together with our customers in order to provide the best solutions for environmental and biological studies.
Under the auspices of the European Marine Biological Resource Centre (EMBRC) framework, some of our infrastructures and services will be incorporated in this pan-European research infrastructure context to increase the available for third parties.
