About the Nordic Network on Fish Welfare

The Nordic Network on Fish Welfare gathers expertise on fish welfare and understands that a joint effort of physiologists, immunologists, ethologists, engineers and fish farmers is needed to better quantify, understand and improve the welfare conditions of the fish in aquaculture and other human-related activities with fish.

The network is coordinated by DTU Aqua and funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers.
