The International Symposium on Aquatic Nutrition has being organized since 1993. To date it is the leading discussion forum in the nutrition of aquatic organisms in Latin America. It is held every two years and aims to bring together scientific experts, students, producers, commercial and industrial representatives with the objective of sharing the most recent advances in the area of nutrition of aquatic organisms.

The Symposium will maintain the original format, where oral presentations (20 + 10 min) are given by invited speakers with international recognition in specific nutrition areas. Hopefully, this will ensure the opportunity for the attendees to exchange opinions and discuss their problems and/or ongoing research to further improve the region's aquaculture industry. There is a call for abstracts of original work to be presented during the poster sessions, with daily discussions through oral presentations of the summary of each work grouped accordingly to specific research area. There will be simultaneous translation English-Spanish, Spanish-English.
