IR-4/FDA Workshop for Minor Use Drugs: Focus on Aquaculture. Opening remarks.

Aquaculture has become a highly technical industry. There is a great need for the producers, scientists, government agencies, and drug manufacturers to become more involved in the drug development process so that the industry continues its growth. I believe that this should be the major goal of this conference. I urge all of the attendees to participate intensely in our round tables to make this goal a reality in future years.
