[Lista-Algas] 6th International Conference on Molluscan Shellfish Safety (ICMSS 07)

[Andres Boltovskoy]

A draft programme for the 6th International Conference on Molluscan 
Shellfish Safety (ICMSS 07) is now available on 
http://www.nzfsa.govt.nz/icmss07.  

There is an extensive programme, which promises a unique opportunity to 
share information on all aspects of molluscan shellfish safety from 
management of environmental contamination to innovation in laboratory 
methods.

The scientific themes are complemented with sessions on the role that 
regulators and the industry themselves play in the provision of safe 
shellfish to the consumer. The practical application of management 
prediction tools for microbiological and marine biotoxin contaminants is 
expected to generate significant interest. Lively debate on international 
uniformity of shellfish safety standards will be encouraged and a number of 
roundtable discussions will be held.
