FishPopTrace
FishPopTrace is a collaborative project involving 15 research groups (from the EU, Norway and Russia), specialized in fish population genetics, molecular biology, proteomics, microchemistry and biochemistry, experts in wildlife forensics, stakeholders of the fisheries industry and, as a scientific consultant, a senior staff member of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). FishPopTrace was launched in March 2008 under the umbrella of the EU Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). The key to FishPopTrace's approach, which focuses on cod, herring, sole and hake, as initial sentinel species, is to develop a high throughput set of tools for species and population-specific identity of fish and fish products throughout the food supply chain.
