AFS Briefs Capital Hill on Sustainable Aquaculture Technologies

Courtesy of NAA:

The American Fisheries Society recently hosted a virtual briefing, entitled Advances in Science and Technology Leading to More Sustainable Aquaculture, for Congressional representatives and staffers working in the natural resources space. A number of NOAA Knauss Fellows attended the live event, and the recording will be further distributed throughout congressional offices.

Moderated by Drue Winters, of the American Fisheries Society, this expert lineup of speakers effectively dispelled misinformation about U.S. aquaculture in a manner that is easily understandable to non-scientists.

Speakers: 

  • Jesse Trushenski, Ph.D.
    • Chief Science Officer, Riverence; USTFA President
  • Don Kent, MSc.
    • President/CEO, Hubbs Sea World Research Institute
  • Guillaume Salze, Ph.D.
    • Chief Science Officer, Knip Bio
  • Tyler Sclodnick, MSc, MBA
    • Principal Scientist and Aquaculture Science Services Lead, Innovasea

The briefing also included three fact-sheets as supplemental information:
