Description:

Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience is a full-time University of Florida research center for biomedical research and biotechnology located in St. Augustine, Florida. Founded in 1974, the Whitney Lab is dedicated to using marine model animals for studying fundamental problems in biology and applying that knowledge to issues of human health, natural resources, and the environment. Scientists at the lab are on the front lines of biodiversity, neuroscience, sensory biology, ocean health, and cell regeneration – working to Go Greater for all of us. Research at the Whitney Lab In response to COVID-19 and in order to promote the safety and wellness of our visitors,volunteers, students, faculty and staff, all of our public programs have been postponed. We are currently reevaluating our public offerings for the community.The Laboratory is continuing operations under UF and CDC advised guidelines and pursuing important basic research and training, however, we are not open to the public at this time.We look forward to seeing you at our programming after this dynamic and challenging event has passed.
