EU-finansierte prosjekter
UiB er koordinator for en rekke EU-finansierte prosjekter.
UiB har deltatt aktivit i EUs rammeprogrammer for forskning og teknologisk utvikling (FP) siden FP4. Universitetet fikk 4 koordinerte ”integrated projects” i FP 6 og deltar per i dag i over 50 prosjekter i FP7. UiB koordinerer ca 20% av disse.
I 2009 fikk også 3 UiB forskere tildelt det prestisjetunge Advanced Investigator Grant fra European Research Council ERC.

Mesoaqua
In marine ecology there is an urgent need to understand the functioning of the lower part of the pelagic food web, its response to and effect on climate change, its response to pollution and environmental toxins, and its role in producing food for commercially important species at higher trophic level. This requires access for European scientists to tools allowing experimental approaches to near-natural pelagic systems.
