In this 40 minute time slot the organizers will provide a background on the use of Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to study fish condition, health, and physiology. Demonstrations of BIA measurement methods will be provided as well as an overview of key factors to consider in the development of new models and the application of existing models to the study of fish ecology and management.
