One of the joy of being a scientist is traveling the world for conferences! Arrived in Puerto Varas, Chile 🇨🇱, for the #ISGA2022 two days ago and making the most of the amazing summer time here! The conference starts tomorrow and the program is really good! Looking forward to the Olympics games of #genetics in #aquaculture 🐟🦐

Time for a short #introduction I guess. I'm Clémence Fraslin, core scientist at the Roslin Institute in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. I'm a quantitative geneticist in Aquaculture, with a main interest in disease resistance and sustainability. I study genetic architecture of traits and genomic selection mainly in #salmonids.
I love talking about food 🧀, baking 🥧, reading, my house plants and cats, especially the one that lives with me (or maybe I live with him?) Here's a picture of Le Chat👇
