This series aims to cover a broad spectrum of topics that highlight the diverse nature of EAS and the wider aquaculture community. The webinars feature overviews of various aquaculture research areas - including EU projects supported by EAS - alongside insights into production technologies, with contributions from our Corporate members. Additionally, the series includes presentations on our network's benefits and addresses specific topics relevant to our large student community.
Each webinar is hosted on Microsoft Teams, typically lasting 45 minutes with 30 minutes dedicated to the presentation and 15 minutes for Q&A.
Following the live session, recordings are available on our YouTube channel for one month. After this period, they are archived in the Members’ Section of our website.
EAStalk is a series of webinars coordinated and moderated by Ana Visković, Project and Programme Manager at the European Aquaculture Society. If you have suggestions for topics or presenters for EAS Talk, please reach out to us at 'ana at aquaeas.eu'.
Our next EAStalk webinar will be with Jan Eric on January 7, 2025, at 14h CET.
Jan Eric will present "The Power of Nanobubbles in RAS Systems". Please register here.
