CFOS Seminar: Managing infectious disease in our changing oceans

The College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences will hold its next weekly seminar on Wednesday, Feb. 2, from 3:30-4:30 p.m. via Zoom. The talk will be offered by Maya Groner, who is a research scientist at Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in Maine.

Managing infectious disease in our changing oceans

The dynamics of marine infectious diseases are shaped by numerous processes, including climate change, fisheries management and aquaculture practices. This talk will explore three marine infectious diseases: sea louse infestations on Pacific salmonids, epizootic shell disease in American lobster and wasting disease in eelgrass meadows.
