EMBS history

The history of the European Marine Biology Symposia dates back to 1960 when Otto Kinne, director of the Biologische Anstalt Helgoland, initiated a series of German marine biological symposia  with European participation. In subsequent years, increased  interest  of marine biologists  from  other European countries engendered an initiative  of the European Biological Symposia, which would be held in regular  intervals  with no affiliation to any existing international bodies.  The first EMBS  was held in Helgoland  in early autumn of 1966 and from then Symposia have been held annually in more than 20 different European countries.

The objective of the European Marine Biology Symposia is to advance the science of marine biology within Europe.
The Symposia promote marine biology by means of an annual meeting hosted within a European country, attracting marine scientists not just from Europe but from all over the world.

The aims of the annual symposia are:

  • To provide a forum for the presentation of current marine biological research verbally and by posters
  • To encourage a wider interest in marine biology and an awareness of the need for proper management of European seas and coasts among politicians, managers, industrialists, environmental planners and general public
  • To support specialist group discussions or workshops on themes of particular interest
  • To foster inter-European links and cooperation between research workers in marine biology
