  • THIS PLACE WAS AMAZING! If you have any interest in marine work or marine life, check this place out. The lab was tremendously well set up and the views were amazing.
  • Excellent research institution. I visited here several times during my PhD for seminars and conferences. Last time I came for a optics course and it was great. In addition the city is beautiful! Take here the ferry to visit Martha's vineyard.
