Dr. Maria Eugenia Cabrejos, laboratory manager of AquaInnova, a Chilean company based in Puerto Montt, recently spent three days in the Veterinary Sciences Division of the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI) training in a range of diagnostic techniques for fish diseases. <\/p>\n
The visit arose from an invited presentation by AFBI’s Dr. David Graham at a fish health conference in 2008 held in Puerto Montt, which is home to a large aquaculture industry. Since then, AFBI has been involved with a number of laboratories in Chile and with Sernepesca, the Chilean Fish Health Authority, in monitoring and improving the quality of aspects of their laboratory testing.<\/p>\n
Dr Cabrejos’s visit also provided an opportunity to discuss areas of mutual scientific interest which, it is hoped will lead to further collaborative work between AFBI and Aqualnnova.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
