Ane AJ Jonassen

My name is Ane Jonassen, and I am a PhD candidate at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), Norway. My research focuses on fish behaviour, welfare and production biology, and more specifically on how environmental and production conditions during early life can influence welfare, robustness and performance later in life. In my master’s degree, I investigated the effects of environmental enrichment on behaviour, growth and stress responses in juvenile rainbow trout. My current PhD research builds on this interest by exploring how more biologically adapted early- life production strategies can improve welfare and robustness in farmed Atlantic salmon.
