In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore the design and validation of an independent RAS research facility that’s redefining salmon studies. Learn how structural independence, biosafety protocols, and biofilter variability affect research outcomes in modern aquaculture. Highlighting why statistical reliability and biosecurity are vital to RAS innovation. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2022 article titled "Evaluation of a recirculating aquaculture system research facility designed to address current knowledge needs in Atlantic salmon production," by Mota, Vasco C., et al.
