The European project AQUA-FAANG aims to improve understanding the genome function and usage of genotype-to-phenotype prediction in the six most important European farmed fish species. AQUA-FAANG brings together world-leading interdisciplinary expertise and industry partners providing direct pathways to commercial exploitation. |

AQUA-FAANG has started!
AQUA-FAANG project has started on May 1, 2019. Its Kick-off Meeting took place on May 28-29, 2019 in Oslo, Norway. There were 23 participants from the partner organisations. Introduction of the project, explanations on the project management WP presentations were presented and internal WP meetings were organised during the 2 day meeting. A specific session was dedicated to Risk management group work where risks where identified and presented. It was a good opportunity to meet with all the other partners and having to learn more about Norwegian salmon production and expected activities and tasks of the project.
