Following on from TheFishSite's last webinar, Parasitic Infections in Aquaculture, this Parasites in Focus: Part One webinar will look in further depth at some of the notable parasitic infections in aquaculture.

First of a two part series, the webinar will take a closer look at a variety of protozoan and metazoan parasites on some of the world’s principal farmed fish, crustacean and mollusc species and make comments on their detection, identification, impacts on their host, and strategies for their management and control.

The webinar will be presented by Fish Vet Group Senior Scientist (Parasitologist) Dr Andy Shinn.

Dr Shinn has a degree in Biological Sciences (Zoology), a PhD in Veterinary Aquaculture and has 26 years’ experience in aquatic parasitology.

Before joining Fish Vet Group, Dr Shinn was head of Aquatic Parasitology at the Institute of Aquaculture, University of Stirling and Course Director for an MSc distance learning programme, delivered in Bangladesh.

The webinar is free to join and will be held at 1 pm (GMT) on Tuesday 29 September 2015.
