Marine Biosystems Research Center

The Marine Biosystems Research Center (MBRC) was established in 1999 to be shared by students and researchers for research and educational purposes. In addition to being University Center for marine biosystems research, the MBRC aims at making a significant contribution to nationwide research efforts in related field by providing information both in and out of the university.
