There is reason to believe that bacterial infections will hinder the development of a thriving marine aquaculture industry. It is therefore very important that the institutions involved in disease control in aquaculture, together develop a necessary strategic research network to meet the bacterial challenges at an early stage in the development of this new part of the industry. It is proposed that the four participating institutions: the Veterinary Institute (VI), the Norwegian Veterinary College (NVH), the Institute of Marine Research (HI) and the Fisheries Research Institute (FF) (five including the two participating VI laboratories) will be responsible for projects focused on diagnostic bacteriology, molecular bacterial taxonomy, disease transmission, functional genomics and antigen expression in bacterial pathogens which are all relevant ant for the nascent marine aquaculture industry. Although the individual institutions are financially responsible for their respective projects, there will be a very large degree of cooperation between the institutions. Establishing collaboration and research across disciplines between the four partners will increase efficiency by reducing the time and resources required in research work and will also reduce competition and duplication of work at the national level.
