EMBRC launches its new website
- Improved ease of navigation helps scientists, industries, and policymakers find the support they need
- The site’s improved user experience facilitates access to EMBRC’s catalogue of top-notch research services and expertise
- The updates help the scientific community maximise the success of their discoveries
EMBRC has unveiled its new website, which has been updated to better serve the needs of the scientists, industry, policymakers and international organisations. The newly improved site has a strong focus on its user experience and facilitates ease of navigation to help targets find the different services and information they need to support their scientific work or inform marine-related policy and decisions.
The new-look website with its refreshed design is a key part of EMBRC’s communications strategy to strengthen its position as a key research infrastructure supporting the international marine science community.
The new website aims to further improve EMBRC’s presentation of its offering and helps researchers from academia and industry find the right services for them, whether they need access to a European coastal ecosystem or the use of specific technology or lab equipment.
Each year, EMBRC supports hundreds of users of all career stages from countries around the world.
The services, resources, and equipment researchers need to push forward their scientific projects are expensive and can be difficult to access. As a research infrastructure, EMBRC offers access to these facilities through its network of marine sites in Europe, as well as highly qualified staff with extensive expertise in helping scientists maximise their projects.
Conducting research comes with many logistical and geographical constraints, such as limited access to equipment, and budget restrictions. EMBRC provides solutions by facilitating resource sharing through access to services across our unique pan-European infrastructure network. This enables researchers to make efficient and impactful new discoveries.

“We’ve revamped our service catalogue to allow for easier navigation through our partners’ offers. Researchers from academia and industry can also find which services have an open funding opportunity from European projects.
Through its 10 member countries (Belgium, France, Greece, Israel, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Finland), EMBRC supports scientists from academia and industry in research that advances the understanding of marine life. The RI helps academic researchers from disciplines including marine biology and ecology, and supports emerging ocean industries such as marine aquaculture, marine biotechnology, and marine observation projects.
The European Marine Biological Resource Centre (EMBRC) is a research infrastructure (RI) for marine biology and ecology research. It works with partners to accelerate knowledge of marine biodiversity through research and biodiversity exploration so we can understand the pressures on life in the ocean, advance scientific innovation, promote the sustainable use of marine biological resources, and help develop a growing sustainable Blue Economy.
Through its network of over 80 marine sites in 10 countries across Europe, EMBRC provides access to ecosystems, and organisms, as well as services and expertise to help researchers from academia and industry study the ocean and develop innovative solutions to issues. These are outlined in its online service catalogue.
“Researchers at many individual institutions do not always have access to the specific ecosystems, organisms, technology, or expertise they need for their scientific project. This can hinder the relevance of their work. We’re proud to be a pillar of support for the marine research community, by providing services that facilitate better and more impactful science.”
