About SOSA
The Senckenberg Ocean Species Alliance (SOSA) project combines marine biodiversity research, species
conservation, and science communication within one project. This interdisciplinary project is composed of
three pillars, the Discovery Unit, Conservation Unit and the Engagement Unit, whose tasks are tightly
interlinked. The Discovery Unit will apply a new model for biodiversity work by providing taxonomic services
to users inside and outside of Senckenberg.
