The Dove Marine Laboratory represents a history of over 110 years of marine science in the north east of England. The Dove has always played an important part in teaching and research of marine sciences at Newcastle and many alumnus have fond memories of being at Cullercoats during their studies. Now part of Newcastle University’s School of Natural and Environmental Sciences, parts of the Dove have been modernized for contemporary teaching but the historic character remains. We have recently established new aquaria facilities and further proposed redevelopments are taking shape. We would like to invite you to spend an evening with us at the Dove Marine Laboratory for a drinks reception, a building tour and to find out more about the first steps into the next 100 years of marine science in the north east.
