Title The Marine Biological Association of India a decade of service to science
 
Creator James, P S B R
 
Subject Marine Fisheries
 
Description The Marine Biological Association of India. established in December 1958 with the chief aim of promoting the cause
of marine sciences in the Indian region, completed ten years
of useful service to science in December 1969. The present total
membership of about 1030 is nearly double that at the inception
of the Association. Perhaps this is one of the few scientific
bodies that has such a large membership of individuals and
institutions spread over about 50 countries. It may also be unique
in the sense that few organisations would have supported themselves
on their own resources. This fortunately the Marine
Biological Association of India has been able to do for the past
ten years. The present status the Association enjoys amongst
scientific bodies in the country and abroad is largely due to the
continued interest and co-operation of its members In this
regard the scientific staff of the Central Marine Fisheries
Research Institute have greatly helped in stabilizing the
Association by their co-operation and work in honorary capacity.
