- Implement a monitoring program to assess the impact of the releases and to help discriminate the impact in relation to the origin of the fish
- Collaborate in the execution of the monitoring program
- Analyse the impact of rearing methods applied upon the survival and fitness of the fish at different ages
- Close collaboration with other working groups in the project
- Dissemination of research results (papers, conference presentations)

**Your profile**:

- Holding a PhD or a master degree in biology, fisheries sciences, or a related field with focus on fish biology or aquatic ecology, or equivalent education is obligatory.
