The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) will hold a technical meeting in Brussels on 11 December 2026 to gather scientific evidence, data and practical experience on the welfare of fish during the grow-out phase.
The assessment covers five species: Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, common carp, European seabass and gilthead seabream.
The meeting is open to people with relevant scientific, technical or practical expertise, including researchers, authorities, sector organisations and aquaculture operators.
Attendance is limited to 60 participants and is subject to selection. The meeting will be held in person, in English, with no interpretation. Participants must cover their own travel and accommodation costs.
Registration may close earlier if the maximum number of places is reached.
