organisation profile
- The Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) is an independent nonprofit institution that conducts world-class marine research and education from its unique mid-Atlantic location.
BIOS, formerly known as the Bermuda Biological Station for Research (BBSR), was founded in 1903 by scientists from Harvard University, New York University and the Bermuda Natural History Society as a station for research in biology and zoology. BBSR was incorporated in New York in 1926 as a U.S. not-for-profit organisation and by 1932 the Bermuda Government and the Rockefeller Foundation joined forces to provide facilities and a modest endowment, and opened the BBSR at its present location in Ferry Reach, St. George's.
