ASSEMBLE is an EU FP7 research infrastructure initiative comprising a network of marine research stations.
Access is provided to a comprehensive set of coastal marine ecosystems, to research vessels, state-of-the-art experimental facilities and to a wide variety of marine organisms; either as research visits or by shipment.
Networking activities are performed to enhance interoperability both within and outside of the ASSEMBLE network. This includes organizing workshops as well as establishing a virtual tool-box and a common database for marine organisms.
Joint research is conducted to improve the provision of marine biological and/or ecological models with an emphasis on models for marine genomics.
The workshop will be on “Functional Genomics of Marine Model Organisms” from May 22nd to 23rd, 2012 at the Zoological Station Anton Dohrn in Naples, Italy.
So far ASSEMBLE has resulted in 8 scientific publications from the Transnational Access programme and 12 from ASSEMBLE Joint Reseach Activities!
The 6th ASSEMBLE call for applications is now open. You can apply for on-site access to the ASSEMBLE infrastructure sites for the period June - November 2012. Deadline 15 February 2012.
