Marine Biotechnology

An informative video on the roles, applications and values of marine macroalgae, or seaweeds, in marine ecosystems, our economy and society. Seaweeds are the largest crop cultivated at sea (46%), and are in many diverse applications we used every day, often without realizing it. For more information on this project, contact Dr. Thierry Chopin, UNB marine biology professor and scientific director of the Canadian Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture Network (CIMTAN) at tchopin@unb.ca.
