Salmon Biology Webinar
Knowing biology, boosting productivity
Service with simultaneous Spanish-English interpretation
What is SBW?
This webinar, organized by Pathovet Labs in Chile, will focus on the biology of farmed salmon—specifically, the integration of physiology, pathology, and immunology—with a concrete application to animal welfare and, inparticular, to achieving optimal field productivity.
Why SBW?
To share and discuss how biological variables, influenced by the environment and production management, determine the production performance of salmon during the growth and fattening stages at sea.
This technical-scientific event aims to serve as a forum for sharing and discussing knowledge in pathobiology as applied to salmon production.
Who is SBW for?
An open invitation to everyone—technicians and professionals in salmon production, as well as those in the fields of health, nutrition, genetics, and pharmaceuticals, among others—related to the salmon cluster, including production companies, suppliers, academics, researchers, regulatory authorities, and inspectors.
** This is a registration request. Pathovet will review the information provided and send access details once confirmed.
