Full title
PHC-Carlos Finlay, France-Cuba « Growth hormone secretagogues and fish neuro-immuno-endocrinology for sustainable aquaculture and conservation »
Description
The project in the field of neuro-immuno-endocrinology concerns the neuropeptides initially discovered as growth hormone secretagogues and aims at investigating their multiple roles in the interactions between growth, metabolism, reproduction and immunity. Biological models are actinopterygian fishes of interest for phylogeny, biodiversity conservation and aquaculture.
