Is now happening the annual meeting of the EBB at CIIMAR to discuss the progresses of the last year of this project.

The EBB project aims to contribute to ensure the practical long-term transnational coordination of the marine biobanks through the establishment of the European Blue Biobank; a world class centrally curated marine biobank operated by EMBRC-ERIC. This initiative, the first of its kind worldwide, will increase the diversity and quality of Marine Biological Resources made available to user communities, facilitating their biotechnological valorization.

The project is coordinated by University of Vigo and CIIMAR is responsible for the WP-2 – Communication. The meeting. To know more about the project, please visit the EBB website (http://www.bluebiobank.eu/).
