| Program for Marine Biodiversity
Biologisk institutt
The Program for Marine Biodiversity (MB) was established by the Department of Biology in 2004. MB’s aim is to develop new insights into theoretical aspects relating to the patterns of marine biodiversity, classical and molecular taxonomy and field-based research on key factors controlling the structure and function of biodiversity. Our research is international ranging from the polar regions to the tropics.
