[ EAStalk ] Practical Gill Health: Understanding, Diagnosing and Managing Gill Health in Aquaculture Production with Chris Matthews

This presentation will look at gill pathobiology in general and how often-multifactorial gill issues affect aquaculture production. Sharing personal and team experience principally from Atlantic salmon farming in Scotland, Norway and Chile, the talk will look at both existing and emergent diagnostic tools with application in gill health and also offer practical perspectives on the diagnosis and management of gill disorders.
