21st International Conference on Diseases of Fish and Shellfish
2023-09-11 - 2023-09-14 | Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom
On behalf of the hosting society, the European Association of Fish Pathologists, and the local organisers at the University of Aberdeen, we look forward to welcoming you all to the 21st International Conference on Diseases of Fish and Shellfish (EAFP XXI), in Aberdeen, Scotland, on 11th-14th September 2023.

Following the online conference event in 2021, we are happy to announce a return to meeting in person. The conference site, Aberdeen, lies in the northeast of Scotland, where the river Dee and the river Don meet the North Sea. Fish farming is a vital industry to Scotland and we believe the site is attractive to participants from all over the world due to easy accessibility and efficient transport infrastructure, safety and cleanliness, and a wide selection of hotels and restaurants.
With an exciting variety of keynote speakers, 25 different session topics and 4 workshops, we are confident that the EAFP conference Aberdeen 2023 will have a high scientific impact and become a memorable experience to all participants from around the globe.
Dear colleagues, together, let us make the EAFP Aberdeen a scientific event to remember! We are both very much looking forward to seeing you in Scotland.

AQUACULTURE EUROPE 2023
2023-09-18 - 2023-09-21 | MESSE WIEN EXHIBITION AND CONGRESS CENTER, Messepl. 1, Vienna, 1021
Aquaculture is the world’s most diverse farming practice in terms of number of species, farming methods, intensity level and environments used. Significant efforts have been made to promote species diversity since global aquaculture production is dominated by a few dozen species. The needs for responsible use of resources, improved efficiency and in-creased resilience against future challenges such as diseases and climate change require further diversification in aquaculture beyond species level.
However, diversification in aquaculture should be well balanced taking into account area specificities, available natural resources, social realities and needs of circular economy. Diversification should be appropriately maintained for local conditions, market access and resilience. Balance between small- and large-scale aquaculture enterprises and activities of various water users for example are salient issues in future aquaculture development.
Taking place in the iconic Austrian capital, Vienna, AE2023 will be a perfect meeting place for this focus on diversification, and while Austria has a low aquaculture production, it has plans for development of existing and new production methods and species and it is at the heart of central Europe, adjacent to Germany, Hungary, Czech Republic, Italy and other European countries focussing on aquaculture development.
Diversification is of course also especially relevant to the marine sector and the AE2023 parallel sessions will cover the full scope of European aquaculture scientific disciplines and species and will comprise submitted oral and poster presentations. AE2023 will also feature an inter-national trade exhibition, industry forum, student sessions and activities, satellite workshops and updates on EU research.

With its diversity of species and production technologies, its diversity of market propositions and with its reverence for the environment and the way in which this is changing, Aquaculture is established as an essential sector in global food supply. There is therefore no doubt that aquaculture is and needs to be for everyone.
This all-inclusive concept is feasible and compatible with the environmental integrity of our coastal areas, with the regeneration and sustainability of our primary sectors, with the economic well-being for important food value chains, with the professional and entrepreneurial formation of local human capital and with the long-life learning needs of our public administrations.
Developing social licence and promoting not only the production and commercialization of high quality and health aquatic feeds, but also the ecosystem services that aquaculture provides, are key features of AE2025 – giving value to each and every person in Spain and throughout Europe.
The AE2025 parallel sessions will cover the full scope of European aquaculture scientific disciplines and species and will comprise submitted oral and poster presentations. AE2025 will also feature an international trade exhibition, industry forum, student sessions and activities, satellite workshops and updates on EU research
AQUAEXCEL3.0 will carry out its final brokerage event at the Innovation Forum, scheduled on Wednesday, September 24th, 2025. For more news on the event, stay tuned to the project website!
