At its creation, UniEuk was led by a Steering Committee (SC) under the supervision of an Advisory Council (AC), with a Scientific and Technical Advisory Board (STAB) providing practical input throughout the course of the project. UniEuk is now in its implementation phase, and the original committees are no longer active. We are extremely grateful to all the members of these committees who helped make the UniEuk project a reality!

Project Implementers from the three main partner institutions (including the Taxonomy Coordinator at Station Biologique in Roscoff, France, the SILVA team in Bremen, Germany, and the ENA team at EMBL-EBI in Hinxton, UK) are responsible for developing the online interactive system and will be coordinating community input from curators and taxonomy experts. They have been maintaining the energy and cohesiveness of the UniEuk effort from the beginning, initially under supervision from the committees.
