A multidisciplinary team of scientists led by Moredun Research Institute has been awarded £1.5M from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) to combat salmon lice in farmed Atlantic salmon through the development of an oral vaccine. This represents a pivotal step towards a sustainable and effective solution to the pervasive challenges posed by sea lice in the aquaculture industry.
Dr. Katharine Onofryton, known to most as Ono, recently joined the AquaTactics® Bimeda® Team in the Summer of 2022. She graduated with her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Oregon State University in 2020 and her Bachelor’s Degree in 2014 from Cornell University.
Bimeda® is pleased to announce the acquisition of AquaTactics® Fish Health ("AquaTactics®"), based in Seattle, Washington. The company was founded in 2009 by Dr. Tom Goodrich and Hugh Mitchell DVM. The company provides fish health services and develops, manufactures and sells bespoke fish vaccines to its fish farm and stock enhancement clients across the USA.
