Below is a list of  scientists visiting between 2013 and 2017. These researchers were invited to come to Bergen in order to work with the biological samples collected in West African Waters through the Guinea Current (GCLME) and Canary Current (CCLME) Large Marine Ecosystem projects.

This activity has been made possible through funding from the  JRS Biodiversity Foundation and facilitated by the University Museum of Bergen.

Many projects are still ongoing, all projects can be found here.
