December: 9 MSc thesis defences at CCMAR

Between the 6^th and 18^th of December 9 students of the Master in Marine Biology will defend their thesis.

The parts that most attracted the participants were the practical video sessions and the participation of the industry in the Workshop. During the three days, the workshop registered a total of 220 participants from 19 countries.

Our researchers had a strong presence at the annual conference of the European Aquaculture Society, where they won the best poster award among more than 800 submitted works and made several oral presentations.

Leonor Ferrão and Diogo Dias carried out their master's thesis at CCMAR's AQUAGROUP and won the award "Merit MSc Fellowship in the academic year of 2019/2020".

The BREEDFLAT project aims to improve the reproductive capacity of 3 important flatfish species in aquaculture production in Portugal and Norway by improving broodstock nutrition.

During this field trip, our researchers visited the facilities where will be kept the halibut broodstock with which they will work wit on the Breedflat project.

Our researchers attended the 8th International Workshop on the Biology of Fish Gametes, where they presented several projects and met old friends.
