As part of the EU funded Fine fish project, Nofima arrange two professional training courses focusing on prevention of malformations in juvenile/adult fish. This workshop is aimed at fish producers, fish health service providers and scientists.
This workshop does not only present results but also provide hands-on training for the benefit of hatchery and juvenile farm operators. The workshop will combine information developed within the project with experience and observations from hatcheries, and will give a summary of relevant knowledge from studies in other species. A thorough presentation of diagnostics (methodology, guidelines for classification) will be included. The workshop will primarily focus on skeletal deformities.
The workshop will also include a farm tour, to visit one of the Danish model trout farms and a European eel producer located close to Billund.
A course has allready been arranged on cod in Bergen. It was foreseen to attract 20 people and more than 40 professionals/scientists participated. This was extremely successful and feedback has been excellent.
