SeafoodSource will hold its debut Twitter chat, which will take place on Friday, 12 December at noon. EST. During this time, join SeafoodSource editors James Wright, Sean Murphy and Michelle McNickle to discuss the potential of genetically modified salmon and whether or not this is the future of farmed seafood.
The chat will last one hour. During this time, @SeafoodSource will present four questions pertaining to genetically modified fish. We encourage participants to join the conversation by answering questions and chatting with other attendees using the hashtag #SfSchat. Twitter users can employ the site TweetChat.com to keep track of the hashtag during that time period.
