PATHMEDA: Pathogen Research in Mediterranean Aquaculture
A Marie Curie Fellowship for the Transfer of Knowledge
Research on pathogens in Mediterranean finfish aquaculture is less well advanced than in North Atlantic waters. A shorter tradition of industrial aquaculture and usually weaker R&D structures in Mediterranean countries are factors probably accounting for this unbalance. 

Efforts to diversify Mediterranean aquaculture imply the use of new finfish species whose pathogens are still poorly known. In order to advance  knowledge of these pathogens, PATHMEDA was launched on November 2005 and ran until October 2009. 

The fellowship is no longer active but this web page serves the purpose of briefly informing, both the general public and the scientific community, about its activities and achievements. 

We hope that you find here a good overview of the project but do not hesitate to e-mail us if you need additional information.
