New platform creates digital map for marine biobanks
A new digital platform from CIIMAR centralises Portugal's marine biological resources to accelerate research and industrial applications in biotechnology, aquaculture, and health.
The Blue Biobanks Digital Research Platform consolidates thousands of biological resources into one accessible hub. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between academic research and commercial industry.
By simplifying the identification of organisms, it supports development in sectors like bioremediation and cosmetics. This unified access point streamlines data retrieval for scientists and industry professionals alike.
