FAU Marine Lab in the Media

Fulfilling Our Mission

FAU Marine Science Laboratory’s primary mission is to communicate scientific information to the public. Media appearances help us accomplish that goal by expanding our audience and methods of outreach. The more media outlets showcasing our research, the more people we are able to share our discoveries with, and the importance of this research. Take a look below at the various media we have been featured in over the years. We are proud to have been most recently featured in the FAU Division of Research’s Science in Seconds series!
