The Department of Marine Biology – 2025

As Israel’s leading department of marine biology, University of Haifa students and faculty have adopted a unique multidisciplinary approach. Research here probes the tiniest details and the broadest issues. It ranges from genes and proteins, through to organisms, and on to complex marine communities and ecosystems. Our research findings will have important implications for policy change and conservation efforts to help protect marine life and our oceans.
