Together with the Division of Technology we integrate biology with technology for digitalization of biology applications in aquaculture through machine vision and AI. Our competence contributes to solutions and innovation in modern aquaculture via projects such as: the lead of the Department of Fish Production and Welfare in the SFI-CtrlAqua (https://ctrlaqua.no/), the scientific and technical management of H2020-iFishIENCi (http://ifishienci.eu/). Other projects include: HEU BlueRemediomics, KSP RAS4.0, FHF, EEA InFishMix , HEU FishEUTrust.
The IFB group has been coordinating cross-cutting aquaculture activities through the Concerns strategic investment (KOS) in Aquaculture. The KOS has gathered over 20 research groups involving over 100 researchers across the 3 Divisions in NORCE with competences in biology, biotechnology, environmental impacts, climate predictions, technology, energy, and social sciences, contributing to sustainable growth of aquaculture.
We are located in Marineholmen “Høyteknologisenteret” (Bergen, Norway). You are welcome to contact us and visit our Sustainable Aquaculture Lab (SAC Lab), which include a high throughput, core lab facility for fish physiology, cellular imaging, and molecular biology research.
