AQUAculture infrastructures for EXCELlence in EUropean fish research 3.0 (AQUAEXCEL3.0)

Description

Short description of the project: AQUAEXCEL3.0 is a five-year project funded by EU Horizon 2020, aimed at further boosting the EU aquaculture sector by expanding the Transnational Access programme to support more external research teams collaborating with its high-quality facilities.

Tangible results: The project is developing free online Training Courses that build on AQUAEXCEL3.0 results and are multi-partner based and demand-driven. In addition, a Virtual Laboratory has been established to simulate aquaculture experiments in silico.

Application/relevance: The training courses focus on the spreading of good practices and transfer of knowledge based on project results, therefore contributing to socio-economic impact and promotion of innovation in the European aquaculture sector. In addition, the virtual laboratory contributes to improved experimental procedures.
