鈥淔ive great aquaculture projects I have cancelled (and why)鈥�
How did a veterinary graduate from AVC end up as the chief scientist for a
National Centre for Aquaculture and Biotechnology in New Zealand? What is
the Centre mandate and what happens when you put a veterinarian in charge
of group of dedicated researchers (and their research budgets)?
This presentation will include a brief introduction to New Zealand鈥檚
National Institute for Water and Atmospheric Research, how applied research
is organized and supported in New Zealand and the challenge of balancing
the interests and motivations of researchers (and their sense of
entitlement) with the core purposes of the organization.
Date: Wednesday, September 25
Time: 12:30- 1:20 pm
Location: AVC Lecture Theatre A
Everyone welcome
