Instituto Universitario de Investigacion Marina INMAR

Technical team

 

The Institute of Marine Research (INMAR) is one of the main agents to carry out the scientific improvement actions planned within the International Campus of Excellence in Marine Science (CEI-MAR); with regard to the Andalusian Government’s commitment to the Blue Economy, as one of the keys to its strategy of intelligent specialization in research and innovation. Due to this fact, there is a increased demand of research services.

To adapt to this new horizon, INMAR has launched new services and activities that involve the use of an important innovative scientific infrastructure and an access to specialist technicians from different fields.
