Director SAMS Group

Welcome from Professor Nicholas J P Owens, Director SAMS Group.

The Scottish Association for Marine Science(SAMS) is one of the most respected marine science organisations internationally. We undertake world-leading marine research; disseminate the knowledge gained through inspirational educational and outreach programmes; and deploy our knowledge and know-how through relevant commercial activities.

Following the imminent retirement of our current Chair, Professor Geoffrey Boulton OBE FRSE FRS, we are seeking an inspirational leader to be Chair of the SAMS Governing Council. We are currently engaged in a large change programme which is exciting and challenging. If you are passionate about the marine environment then we would like to hear from you.

Best wishes

Professor Nicholas J P Owens
Director SAMS Group
