Networking & Marine Research Communication Awards 2022

The Marine Institute Networking & Marine Research Communication Awards are currently open for 2022 submissions. While society is transitioning to the post-pandemic situation, the Marine Institute encourages applicants in 2022 to consider eligible supports that do not require travel, including Open Access Publications, media-productions and virtual events (conferences, workshops and training courses).
