The Darwin-Dohrn Museum
Dedicated to the two giants of science and evolutionary biology, Charles Darwin and Anton Dohrn, the Darwin-Dohrn Museum - DaDoM – promotes the knowledge of the evolution of marine biodiversity.
Inside the DaDoM, visitors will voyage through the oceans through time in the footsteps of Darwin and Dohrn and many other scientists, discovering how organisms became adapted to all marine environments. In this journey through time and research, the public will understand the importance of the oceans in determining the conditions on the planet, will encounter the primordial forms of life that appeared in the oceans over 3 billion years ago, will discover evolutionary theories, and will encounter a series of fossils that show the evolution of forms and functions over the geological eras (walk through time).
Works of art, sculptures and historical biological samples will show how marine organisms move, feed, and reproduce, and the mechanisms that led to current life forms, in a gallery of biodiversity, from the simplest to the most complex organisms, to arrive at the multipurpose room of the DaDoM, housing a large skeleton of a sperm whale (beached along the Campania coasts and recovered by researchers), enriched by models of organisms that feed on the carcasses of these majestic giants of the sea when they arrive in the depths of the sea. The multipurpose room is dominated by a six-meter high wall that houses ten thousand preparations of animals from the Gulf of Naples, set up by the genius of Salvatore Lo Bianco and by those who followed his footsteps in the art of conservation.
The multipurpose room is designed to host thematic exhibits to explore topics of great scientific and popular interest, but also for scientific conferences and seminars, and is available to the cultural world for other initiatives of public interest, such as shows, concerts, exhibitions and film broadcasts. The museum itinerary also includes a journey through the studies and ancient maps of the Gulf of Naples, the discoveries of the over 20 Nobel laureates who conducted their studies in the SZN, up to the current research updated and exhibited month by month.
The Museum includes a large educational laboratory for students of all types and levels designed to carry out practical observation and study activities aimed at discovering the secrets of marine life. The upper floor of the building includes the staff offices, laboratories and organizations hosted by the Center. The Anton Dohrn Zoological Station has returned to the citizens of Naples, Campania and the whole country an asset of the city in its full fruition. This objective will also be extended to the outside of the building, making the garden of the Museum a place of knowledge in the open air. In fact, the garden hosts two scientific submersibles made available by the MareAmico Cultural Association and which have also been used for the exploration of the deep sea environments of the Mediterranean.
Depending on specific needs, the rear lawn or the roof terrace will finally host an open-air summer cinema for documentaries on the sea and for an international competition on scientific cinema and marine documentaries.
Scientific, Educational and Cultural Center in the heart of the city
With the aim of strengthening the so-called "third mission", i.e. the activities of dissemination of scientific discoveries, as well as the opening of research facilities to citizens, with their direct involvement, the Darwin-Dohrn Museum offers opportunities for scientific and educational collaborations, training of teachers and specialists in the sector, educational workshops, cultural meetings, and guided tours for citizens and tourists.
The Museum was inaugurated on December 9, 2021 but its layout will be continuously enriched with new material and new initiatives.

Strategic advice for your research – funding your research
GIO staff aims at maximising the capacity of SZN researchers to obtain external funding for their research. We provide you with support for:
- Scouting for international and national calls, opportunities, training programmes
- Identifying the most promising funding schemes for your research idea and career stage
- Maintenance of statistics on research funding at the SZN
- Publicizing opportunities and research related events to the SZN research community
Project Management – funding your research
Based on previous experience of management of large national and international projects, we can help you with:
- Understanding the regulations of the funding agencies
- Developing and establishing research networks
- Preparing the proposal (in terms of budget planning, project management preparation, workplan and impact)
- Managing the application process, by clarifying inquiries, reading, giving feedback and commenting on applications
- Definition of a Project Management and a Dissemination and Exploitation plan of the project
- Negotiation of terms and conditions for a successful proposal
- Implementation of an efficient project management in all administrative, legal, and financial matters
- Submission of progress reports and financial statements to the funding agency
Patenting, licensing, property right and Innovation advice – develop your ideas
Our innovation advisors have a good knowledge of promotion, commercialization, product development, business development, technology transfer and intellectual property rights. We support you in developing your ideas through the evaluation process towards a possible patent. This means, for example, that we:
- Help you to design, present and formulate your ideas
- Identify potential patents from SZN research results
- Submit to the internal evaluation Commission the potential patenting ideas
- Manage the relationship with SZN administrative offices and external consultants
- Define an Exploitation plan
- Promote and manage the relationship with stakeholders
- Prepare and sign of patents-related contracts
- Manage the patents portfolio of the SZN
- Maintain statistics on research services and patents by the SZN
SZN has an Industrial Property Regulation implementing the changes introduced by Law No. 102 of July 24, 2023 "Amendments to the Industrial Property Code, referred to in Legislative Decree No. 30 of February 10, 2005" available at the following link: REGULATION
The list of documents on the topics of Protection and Exploitation of Research Results and the templates to be filled out to file a new patent application is in the following:
01. Patent filing request form
02. Disclosure of invention
03. Non Disclosure Agreement - NDA
04. Material and Data Transfer Agreement - MTDA
05. Agreement of joint ownership of Patent
All mentioned documents are available, in Italian and English version, at the following link: FORMS
External contracts - expand your network
Research activities can be conducted in the framework of external contracts with public and private institutes. These contracts can be institutional and involve different entities and structures of SZN. Alternatively, they can be referred to specific research activities. These contracts are not confined to research agreements, but can also cover such things as the exchange of confidential information, datasets, research tools or materials and terms and conditions for research projects.
GIO staff, depending on the case, will support several activities, for example:
- Preparing the administrative documents
- Developing and establishing of the partnership participating to the activities (in case of institutional contracts) and its coordination
- Defining the budget
- Defining the contracts
Training and networking events
- Organizing and conducting workshops on scouting, proposal preparation, patenting and develop new business (spin-off)
- Organizing and conducting workshops on specific funding opportunities
- Contact point with APRE and other Agencies
