The AQUALENS Lab pioneers innovative, science-based solutions for nutrition-sensitive aquaculture and sustainable fisheries, aiming to secure food and grow a resilient blue economy.
Pioneering nutrition research, we've developed innovative fish and seaweed powders to combat malnutrition and improve women's health.
Developed and assessed novel, cost-effective aquaculture feeds for mud crabs and fish through major national and international research grants (e.g., BAS-USDA, EU-FP7, MoST).
Led projects enhancing the aquaculture value chain, from novel species assessment to post-harvest utilization and hatchery scaling.
Championed women's empowerment by linking their roles in aquaculture value chains to improved household and adolescent nutrition.
Secured multi-country research funding from prestigious institutions and coordinated collaborative projects to improve food systems and sustainable aquaculture trade.
Conducted research on emerging aquaculture technologies, evaluated food safety risks, and led early studies on seasonal floodplain aquaculture, informing national policy.
The AQUALENS Lab serves as a dynamic hub for advancing nutrition-sensitive aquaculture, sustainable fisheries technologies, and innovative aquatic food solutions. Rooted in science and guided by sustainability, our lab combines interdisciplinary research, field experimentation, and community engagement to address real-world challenges in aquatic food systems.
