The Marine Botany, Photosynthesis and Photosymbiosis Laboratory המעבדה לבוטניקה ימית: פוטוסינתזה ו"פוטוסימביוזה" Prof. Sven Beerפרופ' סוון בר Britannia, Room 609, Tel: 03-6409125 (lab); 09-8945067 (Sven home) Email: svenbeer@post.tau.ac.il http://www.tau.ac.il/lifesci/plant_sciences/USR/beer The activities of this laboratory centre around 1) Photosynthetic carbon acquisition mechanisms in marine macrophytes (algae and seagrasses), 2) Novel methods for in situ underwater measurements of photosynthesis and 3) Photosymbiotic relationships in marine invertebrates (corals and sponges). While some work is done in the TAU laboratory, we also have access to a laboratory at IUI (Eilat) and to a research ship (see the site www.ecoocean.com).
