Prosjekter - SeaLab
Ved SeaLab er har seks faste vitenskapelig ansatte og flere stipendiater arbeidsplass, og utfører forskning og undervisning innenfor en rekke temaer knyttet til bærekraftig havbruk, fiskevelferd og marin miljøvitenskap. I tillegg kommer besøkende forskere fra andre avdelinger ved NTNU og fra universiteter og bedrifter i Norge og andre land.
Publikasjoner fra forsøk utført på SeaLab finnes på ansattsidene til forskere og ingeniører: Ansatte - SeaLab - NTNU

EMBRC
Local contact (NTNU): Inger Jennings
The European Marine Biological Resource Centre (EMBRC) is a European 'research infrastructure' that provides researchers and companies with access to marine organisms and the facilities to study them, including experimental facilities and technological platforms. NTNU is a member of the Norwegian node EMBRC Norway (EMBRC-NO). As a member of this network NTNU offers access to facilities at SeaLab, including climate-controlled rooms, wet labs, analytical facilities, and cultures of marine copepods (Calanus finmarchicus).
Duration of current project: 2019 – 2028

AQUASERV
AQUASERV is a multinational project that brings together six European research infrastructures to provide services in the fields of sustainable aquaculture, fisheries, ecological restoration and the blue economy.
AQUASERV offers over 500 free customised services across Europe to researchers aiming to advance their research on marine and freshwater biological resources, food and biotechnology. NTNU SeaLab is one of the facilities offering access to services through this project.
The services are easily accessible through transnational access (TA) and virtual access (VA), via online application.

Taskforce Lakselus
Project leader: Yngvar Olsen (NTNU)
Building up fundamental knowledge about how sea lice spread within and between salmon farms, as well as between farmed and wild populations of salmonids.
- Internal infection of sea lice within and between salmon farms during normal management routines and through interaction with the environment.
- Mechanism of infection between wild and farmed populations of salmonids
- The role of chemical cues in the infection process
- Life cycle and biology of planktonic stages of salmon lice
- Molecular methods for tracing salmon lice - new genetic markers and development of methods
Project duration: 2017 - ongoing
