Nociception and potential pain perception in Atlantic cod

Nøkkeldata

Startdato 1. desember 2009
Sluttdato 31. desember 2011

The potential for pain perception in teleost fish is a controversial issue and represents a focal point for the fundamental understanding of fish welfare.

In this project, our main objective is to determine which brain areas are involved in the detection of noxious stimuli, thus specifically targeting the most central elements of the current scientific debate on pain in fish.

This will be achieved through an interdisciplinary approach, combining methodology such as neurophysiology and magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI and fMRI).

The project involves partners from nine different institutions in Norway, Great Britain and Belgium.
