The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) is an executive agency of the United Kingdom government Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). It carries out a wide range of research, advisory, consultancy, monitoring and training activities for a large number of customers around the world.[1]
Cefas employs over 550 staff based primarily at two specialist laboratories within the UK, with additional staff based at small, port-based offices in Scarborough, Hayle, and Plymouth.[2] In 2014 Cefas established a permanent base in the Middle East by opening an office in Kuwait,[3] and since opened an office in Oman. They also operate an ocean-going research vessel Cefas Endeavour.[4]
