Together with the University of North Carolina Wilmington and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, SIN Boston convened a meeting of leading scientists from the UK and USA to develop a joint deep-sea coral research programme. This work, catalyzed in 2008, has evolved into the €9.3 million ATLAS project, which supports UN Sustainable Development Goal 14 to “conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources.”
