The Marine Facilities Advisory Board (MFAB) – Can you Help?

The Marine Facilities Advisory Board advises the National Oceanography Centre on marine facilities and services, including the Natural Environment Research Council’s National Marine Equipment Pool (NMEP), the British Oceanographic Data Centre and the British Ocean Sediment Core Research Facility. MFAB is now seeking a new chair and five new members to join a small team from the UK’s marine science community and National Marine Facilities, to respond to requirements for the NMEP. These voluntary positions, starting this summer, offer exciting opportunities to gain experience of working on a technology board, and to learn about the challenges to enhance understanding of the ocean. Enquires welcome to Jackie Pearson, Secretary to MFAB
