How Coho Salmon Fight Off Sea Lice
Update: 2025-08-04
Description
Why do some salmon fight off sea lice with ease, while others struggle year after year? In this week’s episode, we discuss a groundbreaking new study from Nofima that explores what Pacific salmon, especially coho, can teach us about natural sea lice resistance. You’ll learn how cutting-edge techniques like AI-powered histology, proteomics, and spatial transcriptomics came together to paint a full biological picture – mapping the immune response from tissue structure to gene activation. Plus, hear from lead researcher Dr. Lene Sveen as she shares what these findings could mean for future treatments and breeding programs.
