The Polish Academy of Sciences established the Gdańsk Branch on May 30, 1980. Its zone of activity encompasses the northern part of Poland and the following academic centers: Szczecin, Koszalin, Słupsk, Gdańsk, Olsztyn, Bydgoszcz, and Toruń. The major aim of the Branch is to integrate and promote scientific activities significant for the development of the region. The Branch acts through its ten commissions and three expert groups, which organize meetings and discuss problems in the fields of their activity. The majority of the commissions focus on the disciplines of regional importance, for example: maritime and tropical medicine, maritime law, and marine technology. In cooperation with the commissions and local universities, the Gdańsk Branch issues the following titles: Prawo Morskie (Maritime Law), Roczniki Socjologii Morskiej (Annuals of Marine Sociology), Technika Morska (Marine Technology Transactions), Annual of Navigation, Organizacja i Zarządzanie w Regionie Nadmorskim (Organization and Management in Maritime Regions).
