Workshop on sea cucumbers at the Concarneau marine station
Sea cucumber aquaculture: new challenges
The workshop on sea cucumbers is part of the SKUD program, "The emergence of Skin Ulceration Diseases in Edible Sea Cucumbers in a Global Change Framework". Objectives of this program are to make a survey of parasites and diseases of edible sea cucumbers, to determine the cause(s) of SKUDs on these species and to assess on these species the effects of increased temperature and decreased pH on SKUD prevalence and development.
This event will be an opportunity to get together with all scientists around these sea cucumbers topics and the holothurian aquaculture through the organization of conferences.
