The sponsors included: • Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) • US Department of Agriculture • US Geological Service • University of British Columbia Fisheries Centre • National Research Council Institute for Marine Biosciences • Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre In addition, this Symposium was assisted by funding from Aquanet. The main organizers of the Congress, on behalf of the Physiology Section of the American Fisheries Society, were Don MacKinlay of DFO (overall chair, local arrangements, program and proceedings) and Rosemary Pura of UBC Conferences and Accommodation (facility arrangements, registration and housing). Thanks to Karin Howard for assistance with Proceedings editing and word-processing; to Anne Martin for assistance with the web pages; and to Cammi MacKinlay for assistance with social events. I would like to extend a sincere ‘thank you’ to the many organizers and contributors who took the time to prepare a written submission for these proceedings. Your efforts are very much appreciated.

Driedzic, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Ocean Sciences Centre, St. John’s, NF, A1C 5S7, (709) 737-3282, Fax: (709) 737-3220, [email protected] EXTENDED ABSTRACT ONLY- DO NOT CITE Insights into the fundamental aspects of biochemistry and physiology are now about to contribute to a step jump in the aquaculture industry. Recent findings in what features to select for, how to select and indeed how to design fish will result in substantial advancements in farmed production. This symposium brings together the worlds leading experts of applied biochemistry, physiology and molecular biology as relates to finfish aquaculture. This symposium and the one entitled " Behavioural and physiological comparisons of cultured and wild fish" also serve as a forum to present research supported by AquaNet. AquaNet is a funding program supported under the umbrella of the Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE) in Canada. There are direct funding opportunities for members of the Canadian university professoriate and opportunities of partnership collaboration with non-Canadian scholars under this program. Details of AquaNet will be presented and may be found at: www.aquanet.mun.ca 1 2
