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.

O IIM-CSIC: 7 décadas navegando pola investigación mariña en Galicia

Cartel do evento do 70 aniversario do IIM-CSIC

*Por motivos de prevención, vémonos na obriga de aprazar este evento. Anunciaremos a nova data o máis pronto posible!

O Instituto de Investigacións Mariñas do CSIC, en Vigo,  retransmitirá próximamente*, o evento “O IIM-CSIC: 7 décadas navegando pola investigación mariña en Galicia”.

O pasado 3 de outubro fixéronse 70 anos da fundación do Instituto de Investigaciones Pesqueras do CSIC (institución da que saiu o IIM-CSIC e outros 5 centros mariños do CSIC). Neste evento o Instituto quere facer un breve repaso aos seus 70 anos de historia, aos cambios que se deron no mundo da ciencia mariña dende a perspectiva das persoas que formaron parte da comunidade do IIM durante estas 7 décadas en Vigo.

Programa

O programa contará coa participación do Dr. Ricardo Prego, investigador no IIM e co-autor do libro “El Instituto de Investigaciones Pesqueras: Tres décadas de historia de la investigación marina española“, así como dalgunhas das figuras que pasaron por este centro nas súas 7 décadas en Vigo.
