GRINNAQUA: A Twinning European network in fish genomics and health

GRINNAQUA是根据从农场到餐桌的战略构思的，并专注于增强CIIMAR的能力，以提高员工的研究形象和创新能力，将该机构定位于水产养殖领域的主要参与者之一。欧洲水产养殖领域公认的研发领导者，在相关领域拥有坚实的背景，并与CIIMAR合作。他们的个人资料使他们成为推动CIIMAR走向卓越科学和竞争力的理想合作伙伴。INIA-CSIC(西班牙)在鱼类获得性免疫系统和疫苗接种策略的研究方面拥有重要的专门知识；罗斯林研究所-大学。爱丁堡大学(UEDIN，英国)的团队在遗传学和动物育种方面拥有基本的知识；卑尔根(挪威)精通动物健康和预防战略领域。制定了明确的战略，通过实施由合作伙伴领导的培训研讨会和暑期学校来提升员工S的研究形象和卓越表现。CIIMAR的S工作人员计划多次访问合作伙伴的设施，目的是进行高级研究、技术和管理培训，以便交流知识和良好做法。该研究项目整合了合作伙伴的科学和技术优势，将重点放在水产养殖中高经济影响的病毒和寄生虫暴发，研究虹鱼功能性饲料对出血性败血症病毒的预防作用，以及在大西洋鲑鱼感染海虱寄生虫方面的预防效果。该提案概述了加强利益攸关方互动和动员以实现科学成就的战略，加强了CIIMAR以市场为导向的研究和创新能力，以提高其在国家和国际层面的竞争力。GRINNAQUA将有助于提高CIIMAR的创新能力，成为水产养殖蓝色革命的领先研究所。预计将开展长期合作，有助于加强欧洲更可持续的水产养殖。

GRINNAQUA is conceived in compliance with the Farm to Fork Strategy and is focused in capacitating CIIMAR to raise staff’s research profile and increase its innovation capacity positioning the institution among the main actors in the area of aquaculture. Recognized leaders in R&D within European aquaculture with a solid background in relevant areas partnered with CIIMAR. Their profiles make these the ideal partners to push CIIMAR towards scientific excellence and competitiveness. INIA-CSIC (Spain) has significant expertise on the study of fish acquired immune system and vaccination strategies; Roslin Institute - Univ. Edinburg (UEDIN, UK) team has essential know-how in genetics and animal breeding; and Univ. Bergen (Norway) is proficient in the area of animal health and prophylactic strategies. Clear strategies are defined to raise staff´s research profile and excellence by implementing training workshops and Summer schools led by the partners. Several visits of CIIMAR´s staff to partners facilities are planned, targeting senior research, technical and administrative training, allowing the exchange of knowledge and good practices. The research project, integrating partners scientific and technical strengths, will in focus in the high economic impactful viral and parasitic outbreaks in aquaculture, studying the prophylactic effects of functional diets in rainbow trout against haemorrhagic septicaemia virus, and in Atlantic salmon infected sea lice parasite. This proposal outlines strategies to increase stakeholder interaction and its mobilization towards scientific achievements, strengthening CIIMAR’s market-driven research and innovation capacity to increase its competitivity at national and international levels. GRINNAQUA will be instrumental to improve CIIMAR innovation capacity to become a leading institute for the blue revolution in aquaculture. A long-lasting collaboration is foreseen, contributing to strengthen a more sustainable aquaculture in Europe.
