Hopkins Marine Station is part of the Doerr School of Sustainability, and is home to Biology and Oceans graduate students working toward their PhDs. Students train under the supervision of faculty from both departments.

Events

News

  • The inaugural awards will enable research teams to pursue interdisciplinary ocean and coastal projects that address impacts of environmental change in the Bay Area and beyond.

  • A new research partnership will combine Indigenous and scientific knowledge to monitor marine life in a sacred tribal region that may be a bellwether of how native species will fare in the face of climate change.

Rainbow over Monterey Bay

We acknowledge that Hopkins Marine Station sits on the ancestral land of the Ohlone Rumsen tribe and give thanks for the opportunity to live, work and learn on their traditional homeland. We pay our respects to all Ohlone people, past and present.
