In the case of Vigo, the center involved is the Sea Museum Alcabre facilities are experienced in marine and spread the culture are in a good area for this purpose. But his activity principal has not so far focused on the dissemination of research.

Are best able to translate the public what we do, "says Emilio Fernandez. Professor Vigo, commissioner of the University campus for the creation of ocean, see an advantage in this model, which is that museums can be "direct access to information, but they come from outside" and become a sort of office transfer and dissemination. Therefore, believes that both parties will benefit from the collaboration.
Thus, the museums could be a transmission belt research to citizenship in the great strategic project of the University for the coming years. The sea-campus academic institution releasing the initiative to bring together and coordinate all marine research is done in Vigo and Galicia, to turn the city into the great respect in this field.
The University and the Center for Scientific Research (CSIC) have implicated the Estai Cape Oceanography Centre (IEO), Anfaco, the Cetmar and two Galician universities to the core of the project.
