Fish and, potentially, invertebrates will probably be the most intensively farmed animals for quite some time. What fundamental research, do you reckon, is most needed to spearhead their protection and welfare? Thanks.
Thanks for answering, Peter! Yes, I’ve gone through those great resources already. I simply thought of asking the question during this AMA as maybe some new ideas arose since publishing. Thanks again!
Hey all, thanks for all that you do!

For fish, I’d refer you to the “Questions for Further Consideration” section of the ACE Farmed Fish Report (which we contributed research to).
For invertebrates, we wrote a three part series on next steps for research: see Part 1 on fundamental research, Part 2 on intervention research, and Part 3 on attitudes research.
