CONffIDENCE: Rapid tests for contaminants
|
 |
2nd Open Day
9 June 2011
During, the International Triennial Meeting of World Aquaculture Society (WAS) and FENACAM, held from 6- 10th June 2011 in Natal Brazil, the CONffIDENCE project held its 2nd Open Day together with a booth presentation. The Open Day with the title: Rapid tests for contaminants was organized on Thursday the 9th of June during the afternoon session, as part of the session with the title International Cooperation in S&T and Aquaculture research under the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7), organized by the European Commission (delegation of the EU in Brazil & Research & Innovation DG).

The Open Day included 4 oral presentations, giving an overview of CONffIDENCE, the industrial needs regarding rapid tests for contaminants, and key results obtained thus far for persistent organic pollutants (POP’s) and heavy metals. During the break a poster session was held where various project members presented CONffIDENCE results. The combination of posters and oral presentations proved to be effective in generating interest and stimulating discussions with the audience. Approximately 50 participants attended to the Open Day.
