AquaHealth addresses several technical and socioeconomic sub-objectives:

• to sample, cultivate and taxonomically characterize microalgae and their associated microbiomes for further exploitation
• to select promising microalgae microbes/microbiomes for functional screening activities and generate a set of (verified) bioactive compound candidates
• to build the link towards commercial applications of bioactive molecules derived from microalgae microbiomes by scaling up of cultivation and suitable downstream processing,
• evaluate and assess the feasibility, applicability, and potential of the new solutions for health management in aquaculture from a technical perspective and beyond
• anticipate potential impacts arising from the broader implementation of the technology
• involve and interact with relevant stakeholder groups and the wider public towards a new vision for sustainable aquaculture
