The Marine Biology Summer School 2006 is dedicated to the adaptation
capacity of marine organisms, and the (subsequent) marine biodiversity at
different organizational levels, going from genetic diversity through
physiological diversity to community diversity, with an emphasis on coastal
zoobenthic organisms and communities. The school is open for under- and
postgraduate students, young researchers and all interested in marine
biodiversity from European countries.
