CMBB Business Office
Providing administrative support for the Integrative Oceanography Division as part of the Biology Section at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
The section is comprised of three distinct and diverse research units, the Integrative Oceanography Division (IOD), Marine Biology Research Division (MBRD), and Center for Marine Biotechnology and Biomedicine (CMBB), and is served by two separate business offices. However, many of our business office staff crossover and work for all 3 research units.
