RESEARCH
Research Lines
Eight research lines that integrate science, innovation and technology to generate high-impact knowledge and sustainable solutions for the aquaculture sector.
- 01
New fish vaccines
We develop next-generation vaccines —recombinant proteins, mRNA and oral vaccines— as a key tool toward more sustainable, efficient and resilient aquaculture.
RL1 - 02
Fish Diseases and Antimicrobial Resistance
We study the main diseases affecting fish and antimicrobial resistance to reduce antibiotic use across the aquaculture industry.
RL2 - 03
Omics Solutions for Aquaculture
We apply genomics, transcriptomics and bioinformatics to deliver precision solutions that strengthen sustainable aquaculture production.
RL3 - 04
Stress and Animal Welfare
We investigate the factors affecting fish welfare to design more responsible, animal-friendly production practices.
RL4 - 05
Impacts of Aquaculture on Ecosystems
We assess the interaction between aquaculture and marine ecosystems to promote an environmentally balanced productive activity.
RL5 - 06
Increasing the Resilience of Aquaculture
We build knowledge and technologies so Chilean aquaculture can adapt to climate change and new environmental conditions.
RL6 - 07
Sustainable Interactions between Aquaculture, Fisheries and Ecosystems
We analyze the relationships between aquaculture, fisheries and ecosystems to foster a sustainable, coordinated use of marine resources.
RL7 - 08
Socioeconomic Impacts, Governance and Market Dynamics
We study socioeconomic effects, governance and market dynamics to inform public policy and industry decisions.
