NEW RIS-Partnerships International Coffee Breaks!
Working across disciplines and internationally is notoriously difficult and post pandemic we have fewer opportunities for fortuitous encounters that happen during coffee breaks between seminars – the kind of conversations that can, just sometimes lead to something really interesting.
Build your network by scheduling short, no-commitment, informal coffee breaks over video calls with researchers across disciplines in Scotland and Germany.
With current and upcoming joint research funding opportunities available from the DFG (German Research Foundation) and UK Funders, as well as our opportunity to engage with Horizon Europe, now is a great time to be making new connections with academics in Germany and seeding new collaborations.?
Open to all disciplines and all career stages!
Learn more about potential funding opportunities from the DFG by watching our seminar with the DFG on the?SULSA webpage.

EMB launches Future Science Brief No. 11 on Marine habitat mapping
Higher resolution maps are needed to better represent the linkages between the seabed and water column in three-dimensions and to enable an ecosystem approach that considers the marine environment in the “fourth dimension” of time. EMB Future Science Brief No. 11 ‘Marine habitat mapping’ presents science and policy needs and recommendations to advance next-generation marine habitat mapping.
