WORLD AQUACULTURE '99

ASICo would like to thank everyone from John Cooksey and his WAS staff to "The Center" convention center services staff to Ozaccom who made our stay in Sydney smooth sailing.  We made a terrific splash at Darling Harbor in Sydney by introducing the advent of commercially viable programs in microsatellite (marker) technology not only for shrimp but spanning the entire aquaculture spectrum from finfish to bivalves as well. 

We would also like to thank all of you who came out to see us and who were able to join us at our reception overlooking Darling Harbor.  It was great to see all our friends we rarely get to see face to face and also great to make the new acquaintances we did.  We thank you for you interest in ASICo and the new groundwork we have laid with regards to genetics and working towards improving the bottom line for hatcheries and farms alike around the world with the most cutting edge technologies available.

Next year is Nice, France.   Be sure to start planning early as this will be a show to remember.   We will be providing links and more travel information to help plan your trip so keep an eye on this page.
