Ornamental and laboratory fish are extensively traded globally, and can spread pathogens around the world. Laboratory fish are also widely used as models for biomedical research, which can be impacted by underestimated health conditions affecting the models. Ornamental fish diseases can spread undetected between artificially recreated ecosystems, posing threats that are difficult to eradicate when established, or when contaminating natural water systems.This virtual workshop focuses on the pathobiology and diagnostics of infectious threats that could be spread through ornamental fishes, and those impacting research using laboratory fish models. 

This is an open workshop but you must register for the full conference in order to attend.

A joint article from this workshop will be published in the EAFP Bulletin.
