The EU funded AQUAEXCEL3.0 project is hosting its 1st online training course on "Welfare indicators" on October 4th, 2023.

Led by NOFIMA, this 1st training course will focus on welfare indicators for different fish species used in aquaculture research. Participants will learn about the latest technologies around developing welfare indicators, their advantages and disadvantages and carry out practical exercises around real-life cases for welfare monitoring. Environmental enrichment and exercise training will be examined in relation to how they can be beneficial in terms of promoting resilience and robustness in fish.

This training will be provided live online on 4 October, from 9:00-14:15 CEST and is free of charge. For more information on specific topics that will be discussed, and how to register for this course, please visit https://aquaexcel.eu/training-courses/training-course-1-welfare-indicators/. The live course will be recorded as the basis for the non-live online course that will be available on an on-going basis after the live course and further details will follow later.
