Projet de recherche BL/IN/10 (Action de recherche BL)
The involved research teams complement one another in the scientific area of expertise, experience with different fish and shellfish species, and scientific/technical perspectives. The networking activities will create a momentum to gain new insight into the respective ongoing projects – ‘AquaStress at Ghent University (UGent)’ and ‘shrimp immune responses to biological stressors at Fisheries College/ Marine Biotechonology, Nitte University, Medical Sciences Complex’.
The network aims at:
- Identifying PhD student(s) for double degree study between UGent and KVAFSU/Marine Biotechonology, Nitte University on theme of complimentary interest for this joint study – ‘Aquastress’ and ‘shrimp immune responses’.
- Participation in, and presentation at conferences/symposiums of interest for this study in India and Belgium.
- Joint workshop for PhD students on methodologies and concepts used in “aquaculture stress research”.
- Staff/student exchanges for training purposes in new methodologies, planning of experiments and for interpretation of study results.
The action will also facilitate the coordination of activities of researchers at Indo-European level, including training of early stage researchers, and directly benefit sustainable aquaculture development.
