Training course 3: Conducting Experimental Infections in Fish and Shellfish

DATE: NOVEMBER 11th: 9:00 – 15:30 (CEST) & NOVEMBER 12th 9:00 – 14:10 (CEST)

LOCATION: Online

COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course offers comprehensive training in the design and analysis of experimental infection trials in fish and shellfish, covering both fundamental and advanced concepts. It is divided into two parts to provide a thorough understanding of both theoretical and practical aspects.

The first part of the course will consist of self-paced lectures covering essential theoretical topics, including ethical considerations for using animals in experiments, designing infection trials, evaluating pathogens and pathologies, analyzing results of infection trials in fish, and general concepts of vaccines. The second part will consist of live lectures focusing on applying the theoretical knowledge gained in the first part to real infection trial using several fish species and bivalves and different types of pathogens (virus, bacteria, and parasites).
