Standard name: Unité de Biologie Marine Parent institute: Université Libre de Bruxelles; Centre Interuniversitaire de Biologie Marine (ULB - UMH) (ULB-CIBIM)
The Marine Biology (BIOMAR) lab carries out research focusing on marine conservation at all latitudes, blending (numerical)ecology, bio/phylogeography and physiology of a broad range of marine organisms (with a special attention devoted to benthic invertebrates, including echinoderms). BIOMAR started its research and training activities in 1969, when Prof. Michel Jangoux was first recruited. Since 1989, BIOMAR is closely associated to other marine biology research laboratories, forming the 'Centre Interuniversitaire de Biologie Marine' (CIBIM). Since 2023, BIOMAR co-manages a research station in Belaza (Southwest of Madagascar) with UMons, ULiège and UToliara.
The following subjects are studied: aquaculture, biodiversity, biogeography, biomineralisation, development, ecotoxicology, ecophysiology (including energetics), general biology, marine imagery, numerical ecology, nutrition, systematics, reproduction and symbioses.
