André Punt visited the College of Marine Sciences at Shanghai Ocean University (SHOU) during April 2017. The aim of the visit was to establish collaborations with faculty and students at SHOU. The faculty at SHOU represent The People’s Republic of China at many Regional Fisheries Management Organizations such as the Commission for Conservation of Antarctic Living Marine Resources (CCAMLR) and the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Management Commission (WCPFC). André’s host in Shanghai, Dr. Xinjun Chen, the Dean of the College of Marine Sciences, is also the Chief Scientist for China’s distant-water fisheries. While in Shanghai, André gave talks on Management Strategy Evaluation and rebuilding of fish stocks in the US. He also got to see something of the city of Shanghai between meetings and lectures
