MBARI hosts monthly seminars, lectures from the world’s leading ocean researchers, educational workshops, and an annual open house where the public can get a behind-the-scenes glimpse inside the world of our work. At this time, our seminars are still virtual with in-person attendance limited only to MBARI staff.
