GAME Partnerinstitute – ein Netzwerk für die Meresforschung

Über 40 wissenschaftliche Partner in mehr als 30 Ländern

Trinidad & Tobago

Institute: University of the West Indies, St. Augustine
Local tutor: Dr. Judith Gobin
Participation: GAME 2009

Last update: March 2022


The University of the West Indies St. Augustine, Trinidad & Tobago with its four campusses is the result of cooperation and combined efforts of 17 states and territories in the Caribbean. The Trinidad branch was founded in 1960 and is home for the School of Natural Sciences. Therefore, St. Augustine makes for another tropical location in our network, and currently the only one in the tropical Atlantic. The Caribbean with its high biodiversity is a rewarding field of exploration for GAME, and we’re very happy to have a cooperative partner here since 2008. GAME on Trinidad is tutored by Dr Judith Gobin.

The University of Bangor, including its marine biological research facilities, is situated on the Isle of Anglesey near the Menai Strait, a natural channel segregating the island from the British mainland. A rocky shore with considerable tidal range creates extensive and easily accessible areas for the researching biologist or student. GAME at this site is tutored by Dr Stuart Jenkins.

GAME News

  • Neuer Name – gleiches Akronym

    Seit 24 Jahren steht GAME für exzellente Forschung und für die praxisnahe und forschungsbasierte Ausbildung von Masterstudierenden der Biologie und der Umweltwissenschaften. Dabei beschrieb der voll ausgeschriebene Name des Programms aber vor allem den technischen Ansatz von GAME: Global Approach by Modular Experiments.

    Anfang 2026 hat GAME sich einen neuen Namen gegeben. GAME steht nun für Global Approach in Marine Ecology. Diese Änderung hat das GAME-Kuratorium, dem auch der Begründer von GAME Prof. Dr. Martin Wahl angehört, angestoßen. Sie soll sowohl den globalen Charakter als auch die inhaltliche Ausrichtung des Programms in dessen Namen sichtbar machen.
