Team research is the theme of the Hollings Marine Laboratory. No longer can one scientist
working in one discipline, or at one institution, independently provide solutions
to the coastal environmental and public health problems of this nation. The cumulative
and combined expertise and skills of the Partners provide the resources that allow
the research teams to assess marine environmental quality and link it to human health.
