  • 2Nd Millport Marine Research Symposium 2018
    Proceedings of the 2nd Millport Marine Research Symposium 2018 Proceedings of the nd 2 Millport Marine Research Symposium 1 Millport FieldProceedings Centre of the 2 nd Millport Marine Research Symposium 2018 Isle of Cumbrae Foreword Jack Lucas Facing out into the Clyde Sea from the southeast shores of the Isle of Great Cumbrae, the buildings that comprise Millport Field Centre have historic significance in the annals of marine research and education. From the early days where scientific work was conducted from a floating laboratory, through the construction of Millport Marine Biological Station in 1897 to the establishment of the Scottish Marine Biological Society in 1914; the station has been a beacon for researchers and natural historians wishing to study the properties and inhabitants of the ocean. Building on decades of pioneering work as the University Marine Biological Station Millport, FSC Millport continues to act as gateway to the marine environment for thousands of students each year and contributes to our current understanding through the hosting of international research students and collaboration with other research institutes. Since its reformation in 2014 under the banner of the Field Studies Council, one of the driving aspirations of the centre and its staff have been to pull away the veil of exclusivity that can often surround prestigious scientific institutions and open the doors to a wider variety of learners. In keeping with the FSC’s motto of ‘bringing environmental understanding to all’; the centre now provides education opportunities for all ages, from primary school residentials and high school science trips to university field courses, professional natural history courses and family holidays.
