Shownotes

In this episode, we delve into the world of blister worms and their impact on aquaculture. Join us as we explore the life of these marine polychaetes with Dr. Paul Rawson, whose research at the University of Maine is shedding light on the challenges these creatures pose to the shellfish industry. From historical accounts dating back to the 1700s to cutting-edge techniques like cold storage, we navigate the complex relationship between oysters and their unwelcome guests.
