scope
Closing the life cycle of aquaculture species of economic
importance is critical for the ultimate success of aquaculture.
Predictable & cost-effective availability of high-quality fry,
fingerlings, postlarvae, seed, spores, etc. remain the key for a
successful aquaculture venture. Knowledge generated at many
different levels can further increase the success of the sector.
Much progress is being made in knowledge-based insights on e.g.
the genetic make-up of the broodstock, steering the ontogeny, the
importance of first feeding, steering host microbial interactions
and its immunological consequences, automation, etc. Research in
these fields are increasingly supported and stimulated by a
variety of novel and sophisticated techniques such as omics’ and
artificial intelligence tools. They generate an unprecedented and
often fascinating insight into biological processes. Although they
generally also raise new research questions, they stand for a
major leap forwards as compared to the empirical approach of a
relatively recent past.
Capitalising on the previous “larvi” symposia (in ’91, ’95, ’01,
’05, ’09, ’13, ‘17), the Aquaculture R&D Consortium of Ghent
University, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and
SINTEF Ocean have joined again in the organizing committee for
“larvi’24” and are inviting the academic as well as the private
sector to attend the 8th Fish and Shellfish Larviculture
Symposium. Bringing together European and non-European
stakeholders, once again the latest progress in academic research
and in the production sector will be reviewed, problems identified
and avenues for future collaboration explored.

scientific programme
Over 190 contributions from 23 different countries were
submitted for an oral or poster presentation at larvi 2024. The
Scientific Committee has performed a selection and finalised a
program of 44 oral presentations (limited to pertinent reviews
and/or discussions of multiple experiments with one or
preferably several species). During the Opening Session 2
keynote presentations will be presented, one from the academic
sector, one from the industry. Each of the 5 conference sessions
will start with a keynote presentation. Authors of a limited
number of posters will be offered the opportunity to shortly
present their work orally during poster sessions.
The following participants have already been selected by the
scientific committee to present an oral contribution at larvi
2024:
Bandara Kasun A. (Sri Lanka), Barreto André (Portugal), Baruah
Kartik (India), Calloni Stefano (Belgium), Ce Shi (China), De
Swaef Evelien (Belgium), Defoirdt Tom (Belgium), Dhert Philippe
(Belgium), Dominguez David (Spain), F. Ribeiro Flavio (New
Zealand), Giebichenstein Jan (Norway), Haniswita Haniswita
(Indonesia), Hawkyard Matt (USA), Hernández-Zúñiga Eric (Chile),
Ikhsan Natrah (Malaysia), Izquierdo Marisol (Spain), Kjørsvik
Elin (Norway), Kvæstad Bjarne (Norway), Li Keshuai (Norway),
Lund Ivar (Denmark), Makridis Pavlos (Greece), Monroig Óscar
(Spain), Muller Marc (Belgium), Musialak Luciana Alves (Norway),
Mylonas Constantinos (Greece), Navarro-Guillén Carmen (Spain),
Ngoc Minh Ngan Bui (Vietnam), Norouzitallab Parisa (Iran), Oz
Itay (Israel), Palińska-Żarska Katarzyna (Poland), Politis
Sebastian (Denmark), Pope Matthew (United Kingdom), Qi Zizhong
(China), Quek Wei Li (Singapore), Ramirez Ivan (Ecuador), Sujan
Khadka (Norway), Teske Jessica (Belgium), Tsipourlianos Andreas
(Greece), Tzakris Konstatinos (Norway), Volpe Charlotte
(Norway), Vu Ngoc Ut (Vietnam), Witten P. Eckhard (Belgium), Xu
Qunying (Singapore), Zheng Xiaoting (China)
In order to ensure that the posters will make up an integral
part of the conference, sufficient time will be allocated to
viewing and discussing the posters. The posters can be displayed
as of Monday morning and first viewing will be possible on
Tuesday morning; 40 min coffee breaks in the morning and in the
afternoon guarantee enough time is available to study the
posters, and arrangements will be made that lunches can be taken
nearby the poster area.
During the closing session an award will be given to the author
of the best poster, selected on its scientific value and layout
qualities.
publications
All symposium participants will receive a digital version of larvi
2024 comprising the abstracts of the oral presentations and the
mini papers of the poster presentations which will be
review¬ed/selected by the scientific committee.
