Plymouth Marine Laboratory

 

PML Applications Ltd is the wholly owned trading subsidiary of Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML). A hallmark of PML’s science and technology base has been its innovative and entrepreneurial nature. Several small companies have spun out of PML over the years and many innovative products have been developed which are now used throughout the world.

 

Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML) provides an integrated scientific understanding, addressing interactions between the marine environment and people to sustain marine ecosystems, their services and societal benefits.

 

An enduring characteristic of PML research and outputs is the way in which the science is developed. From its early multidisciplinary days 3 decades ago, PML has continued to integrate scientific disciplines in an innovative and creative way. PML’s science is now truly interdisciplinary in many cases and the skills and expertise within its staff have been gained in a range of scientific disciplines from biomedical science to the biotechnology industry.

 

PML Applications Ltd, PML's wholly owned trading subsidiary set up in 2002, has as its remit to help PML broaden the application of its research products by having a more focused interface with industry and other users; to increase the use of PML’s research and products; to provide solutions, and to help in the process of knowledge transfer through identifying the next generation of innovation and products, nurturing and developing these to the point of marketing and application.
