2 Objectives of the lecture Introduction to NACEE Status of Aqucultured Animal Health Improvement in NACEE countries ASEM NACEE Methodology Questionare by and/or fax

3 NACEE s Mission 1 Objectives Long term objective Facilitate that the R&D sphere in Central- Eastern Europe be an integral part of the European Research Area

4 NACEE s Mission 2 Immediate objectives - exchange of information among members (within the region) - facilitate the transfer of information relevant to aquaculture development of the region - exchange of scientists with special regard to young ones - initiate joint research and training programs - facilitate efforts aiming at the better involvement of CEE institutions in European-level aquaculture development programs - assist the organisation of regional aquaculture meetings and conferences - facilitate the improvement of partnership between science and practice, with special regard to SMEs and Producers Associations - enhance the capacity of CEE institutions to be able to initiate and run regional aquaculture development projects supported by the EU, FAO and other international organisations - development collaboration between the Network and other regional networks/organisations with special regard to NACA (Network of Aquaculture Centers in Asia-Pacific)

19 5. Industry needs and priorities State support Special, favourable credits for aquaculture industry Good quality and cheap feed National and inernational market (demand) Modern equipment Increase of production of pond aquaculture Improvement of disease resistance (immunprohylaxis, vaccination) Development of methods for prevention and therapy of fish diseases Development of diagnostic methods for bacterial and viral diseases DNA-based express diagnostic methods for farm conditions Mutageneic effects, lymphosarcoma (Ukraine, Belarus)

20 6. Areas of research that need further attention Molecular genetic studies of the effects of anti-mutagens in fish Stress and disease resistance of fish Genetic improvement of fish (resistance) Genetic control of fish immune mechanisms Fish pathogens interactions between natural waters and fish farms Improvement of disease resistance (immunprohylaxis, vaccination) Development of methods for prevention and therapy of fish diseases Development of diagnostic methods for bacterial and viral diseases (some specify: salmonids, cyprinids, siluriformes, sturgeon) (DNA-based) express diagnostic methods for farm conditions Mutageneic effects, lymphosarcoma (Ukraine, Belarus)

21 B. INTERNATIONAL ISSUES: EUROPE-ASIA COOPERATION 1. Existing research and development cooperations of your institute with Asian countries Science and technology cooperation Belarus-China: research coop on immunostimmulants Hungary-China: research coop on natural immunostimmulants Hungary-China: research coop on improving stress and disease resistance by genetic methods Russia-China: exchange with aquacultured species Development assistance cooperation Hungary-Vietnam: seed and feed supply for freshwater species cultured by small scale farmers Hungary-Laos: seed and feed supply for freshwater species cultured by small scale farmers

22 B. INTERNATIONAL ISSUES: EUROPE-ASIA COOPERATION 2. Planned research and development cooperations of your institute with Asian countries 3. Suggested areas for research and development cooperations with Asian countries Belarus-China, Indonesia: Immunostimmulation, viral diseases of carps Hungary-China: Medical herbs as immunostimmulants Hungary-Vietnam: Genetic improvement of diseases resistance Hungary-Indonesia: Koi Herpes Virus Disease resistant carp strains Moldova: New drugs for aquaculture (natural products?) Poland: Development of new methods for prevention and therapy of infectious fish diseases Russia: exchange with aquacultured fish species

23 NACEE ASEM perspective areas of cooperation Development of diagnostic methods for bacterial and viral diseases Express diagnostic methods for farm conditions Development of methods for prevention and therapy of fish diseases Improvement of disease resistance (immunprohylaxis, vaccination) Application of medical herbs as immunostimmulants Genetic improvement of disease resistance Genetic improvement of stress and disease resistance of fish Genetic control of fish immune mechanisms Fish pathogens interactions between natural waters and fish farms

24 NACEE ASEM ways of cooperation Contry with country (bilateral) Consortium of several NACEE countries and Asian partner contries NACEE as an organisation In case of multilateral cooperations together with non NACEE member countries, EU INCO-DC could be a framework
