About IIM

The Institute of Marine Research (IIM-CSIC) is one of the main marine research centers in the Iberian Peninsula. Looking at the Atlantic from Vigo, a city with a strong connection with the sea, the IIM-CSIC faces the challenge of increasing our knowledge about the ocean, from its physical characteristics to the food we take from it and the processes that bind the whole system together.

Research

Research is at the core of the Institute of Marine Research's work. Working along 3 Core Research Themes, which intertwine and connect to each other, the researchers and technicians at the IIM-CSIC look for answers within 9 different research lines.

Innovation

While our research provides us with new knowledge about our sea and shores, at the Institute of Marine Research we are committed to go a step further, creating new collaborations with the industry and other economic activities, be they already 'established' industries, such as fisheries or aquaculture, or 'emerging' ones, such as ocean observation.

Society

Science is not complete until it is shared with society. As a public research institution, the IIM understands that its commitment is with society, fostering a two-way relationship with its surrounding community and an open perspective on science.

Work & Study

Marine scientists, lab technicians, biologists, chemists and engineers, but also economists, lawyers or communicators (both working and in training) contribute to the interdisciplinary nature of our center. With more than 200 employees, the IIM-CSIC is a large community of people who work together for the sake of science, knowledge and sustainability.

Workshop

Try Olympus Lighsheet Alpha3 microscope at IIM-CSIC

O equipo da compañía Olympus trasladarase esta semana ao IIM para levar a cabo un obradoiro para presentar o seu Lightsheet Alpha3; un equipo moi similar ao que teremos no Instituto grazas ás axudas da Axencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI).

O Instituto de Investigacións Mariñas (IIM-CSIC) acolle esta semana un workshop para  para coñecer os últimos avances na microscopia de fluorescencia co dispositivo Alpha3 que brinda escaneos focales ópticos intelixentes a fin de permitir un procesamento de imaxes uniforme e exento de artefactos en todo o campo de visión. O sistema pode ser actualizado facilmente con opcións como o escaneo rápido (escaneo 3D intelixente), aplicación mosaico XY e controis de temperatura para satisfacer diversas necesidades experimentais. O software QtSPIM proporciona unha interface intuitiva e clara para recompilar imaxes de X, E, Z, θ, T, λ a máxima velocidade. Podes traer as túas mostras para probar.
