University of Miami Joins NOAA to Launch Aquaculture Research Institute CIFARM

The University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science has joined a national initiative to advance sustainable seafood production through the newly formed Cooperative Institute Fostering Aquaculture Research and Markets (CIFARM). This partnership, which operates in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), focuses on developing research and technology to support the growth of the domestic aquaculture industry.

The institute coordinates efforts between academic researchers and federal scientists to address technical and economic challenges within the seafood sector. By integrating scientific data with market-based strategies, the program aims to provide a framework for expanding aquaculture operations across the United States. The collaboration utilizes the Rosenstiel School’s existing marine science infrastructure to conduct studies on sustainable farming practices and production efficiency. These efforts align with broader federal objectives to increase the domestic supply of seafood while maintaining environmental standards.
