The Big Fish Series: Can you eat the whole fish? Wednesday January 19th 12-1pm Dear colleagues and friends, Wishing you all a Happy New Year! We would like to invite you to register for the first The Big Fish Series<https://thebigfishseries.stir.ac.uk/> of 2022: ‘Can you eat the whole fish?’ is the second seminar of the second series co-hosted with Ca’ Foscari University of Venice<https://www.unive.it/> on 19th January 12:00-13:00 (GMT). We invite you to register here<https://stir-ac-uk.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SR5xi0W8TE2FS7-0mrTLdg>! The Big Fish series is a free online seminar series brought to you by the University of Stirling’s, Institute of Aquaculture<https://www.stir.ac.uk/about/faculties/natural-sciences/aquaculture/>. The purpose of this series is to highlight seafood’s roles in sustainable food systems. Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, coordinated the H2020 project GAIN<http://www.unive.it/gainh2020_eu> – Green Aquaculture INtensification in Europe (May 2018 – October 2021), which developed innovative processes for reusing side-streams and extracting valuable secondary products from farmed fish. There are two Worlds in regard to how fish is consumed and this seminar will consider both. As demand for processed products has grown so has waste but also opportunities to add value to lower value byproducts. The GAIN project has looked at what it will take to reduce such waste in seafood systems in Europe through scientific and technical innovations, new policies and economic instruments, and the mitigation of social constraints. But in another World people DO eat the whole fish because it is culturally preferred and can deliver more nutritional benefit. Our panel will reflect these two Worlds and different approaches to taking waste out of seafood systems and optimizing benefits for the Global population challenged by the environmental impacts of food production and malnutrition. The seminar will open with a short presentation outlining strategies to take waste out of aquaculture by Professor Roberto Pastres, https://www.unive.it/ showcasing research from the GAIN project in collaboration with researchers at the Institute of Aquaculture. This will be followed by a video mash-up of academic, industry and consumer views and an interactive discussion on the topic with a diverse panel of experts. We would like to invite you to participate in the event by providing a photograph of how YOU eat fish or a video of how you prepare and consume it in a short 30 second video.
