Welcome

A very warm welcome to our Potsdam Institute of Inland Fisheries (IfB, Institut für Binnenfischerei e.V.) in Potsdam Sacrow, in the state of Brandenburg, Germany.

 

We are a scientific institution for applied inland fisheries and fish ecology research, and consider our work to provide a link between blue sky research and industry practice, based on the principle "Practical fisheries research for practitioners".

 

We are very excited to present you with the brand new English language version of our Institute's website, an information platform about the activities and projects of our research institute and its staff.

 

If you are missing anything here that you really want to find out about, please feel free to contact our friendly staff  by email or phone (if in the EU) - on each webpage you will find information on the most suitable contact to use for the respective topic.

 

We do hope you will enjoy browsing our website and are looking forward to engaging with you in the future.
