Abstracts

We invite researchers and clinicians to submit their work for the International Conference on Fish Vaccination, taking place in Alicante, 24–27 May 2027.

You need to create a submitter account in order to submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation. Before starting the process, please download and read the guidelines carefully.

The scientific committee encourages you to send your abstract!

Abstracts for oral and poster presentations are welcomed around the following key themes:

Current global landscape of fish vaccination

Regional, national and/or aquaculture segment-specific vaccine use; species-specific disease and market needs; economic impact and cost-benefit considerations; market gaps and unmet commercial opportunities.

Vaccine platforms and antigen-design strategies

DNA/RNA, inactivated, recombinant and live vaccines; epitope prediction; platform scalability and manufacturability; regulatory pathways for novel platforms (e.g. RNA, live vaccines); licensing challenges and timelines.

Vaccine delivery strategies for farmed fish

Injection, immersion, oral delivery; optimization of novel mucosal strategies; automation and large-scale deployment.

Immune responses and correlates of protection

Innate vs adaptive responses elicited; functional vs surrogate markers; correlates of protection; systems vaccinology; acceptance by regulators.

Methods for enhancing vaccine performance

Adjuvants including emulsions and novel targeted adjuvants; adjuvant side effects; positive effects of immunostimulants, diet, microbiome or host genetics; optimisation of products for field performance and consistency.

From experimental success to field impact

Laboratory vs. field validation; epidemiology and real-world performance studies.

Regulatory framework and 3Rs

Licensing requirements; minor species vaccines; implementation of 3Rs during development and batch release
