About the research project
About the research
The team will look at:
- Environmental impacts on our ability to grow ocean-sourced food
- How pathogens spread in a changing ocean environment
- Antimicrobial usage in ocean food farming
As part of this project, researchers will develop a better understanding of climate change risks to ocean and animal health, develop new ways to monitor waste and pathogens, share their findings with fish harvesters and farmers, to ensure prudent antimicrobial use and create an equitable training program to promote the sustainable use of ocean resources in the future.
