Aquaculture Europe 2009 coming soon

Aquaculture Europe 2009 will address future research challenges – as aquaculture continues to develop, the research will undergo fundamental change. Current technologies have potentially reached their limits and we now need re-thinking on their role in contributing to the research agenda. Aquaculture Europe 2009 will address this challenge and will provide an international forum to discuss latest research initiatives and new research frontiers. Aquaculture Europe 2009 will take place from August 14-17, 2009, in Trondheim, Norway - just before the world’s leading aquaculture exhibition, Aqua Nor, where many new research approaches are already starting to find industrial applications.

AE2009 has attracted the submission of more than 350 abstracts from authors in 42 countries for the parallel and poster sessions. Special parallel sessions will also be dedicated to the outputs of the EU-funded SUSTAINAQUA initiative and the EAS Thematic Group EUROSHELL. The European Commission will once again organise a special EU Forum, where representatives of DG Mare and DG Research will present the new European aquaculture strategy and provide a question and answer forum on new research funding on aquaculture through the Community 7th Framework Programme. The EAS Student Group will also organise a special workshop session within AE2009.
