Cat is out of the bag, have a look at our operational testing of khapra beetle detection using #eDNA to complement #biosecurity @CentreInvasives @Di_GleesonNZ @UC_CCEG
We’ve set up the world’s first survey using #eDNA to detect #khaprabeetle in sea containers, with Dr Alejandro Trujillo-Gonzalez (University of Canberra) and Qube Holdings! Survey results may lead to changes to our khapra beetle urgent actions. More: awe.gov.au/khapra-urgent-act…

Water sampling for #eDNA - anyone can do it!
With this, we can analyze what lives in a specific place and time.
Interested in this #tech for your #biodiversity or #species #monitoring goals? Open call for companies, organizations, institutions addressing #environmental health

Intense Day2 of #MolEcol23 module ended successfully. 7 hrs sampling of sites along the #Kinzig river. Then students processed their samples & started (e)DNA extraction 🙏👍🏼
Much longer than a regular teaching day - but that can happen if one includes real research in teaching. – at Gelnhausen, Deutschland
It's happening!!! Great opportunity to work with one of the best teams in this part of the world :)

Well deserved and excellent outcome from the ARC. Congratulations to @Di_GleesonNZ @petersolomon99 @schwessinger for leading this!
So we did it!! An ARC Plant Biosecurity Training Centre!!! Congrats @petersolomon99 @schwessinger and our other amazing collab/partners. Now the fun begins!!

We are now looking for a PhD candidate to work with us on this project. We will look at the processes underlying maturation and ovulation, aiming to further improve current breeding practices. PhD details (scholarship included) available here lnkd.in/gqYdfFsv @CSTFA_JCU
I'm still soaking it in, but I received the wonderful news on Friday that I was awarded an @arc_gov_au Early Career Industry Fellowship to develop advanced reproductive techniques that will transform barramundi selecting breeding programs. @jcu @CSTFA_JCU #ECR #Aquaculture
And it's done! What a great opportunity we had to discuss #eDNA innovation, implementation and operational use. Thank you, @PISCeS_eDNA, for giving me the opportunity to meet the many teams pushing the envelope of Research in the US and Canada. Until next time! @SeDNASociety

Adam Sepúlveda setting up the groundworks for eDNA samplers at #PISCeS2023. These machines need to be easy to fix and troubleshoot. @PISCeS_eDNA
Someone talk to Adam and make him make a twitter account! Let's go #eDNA community. @PISCeS_eDNA

It was during her time in Australia, that Heather Veilleux was first introduced to eDNA. Read more about the work she completed there, and how she’s applying that insight at Ecometrix, at ecometrix.ca/knowledge-hub/h…

I had a great time catching up with @AlejandroT_G during @PISCeS_eDNA this week. Awesome to see an old Australian labmate after 5 years, and both still pationate about eDNA. Alejandro gave an enlightening talk about how Australia has implemented best practice eDNA guidelines. – at Guelph, Ontario

Excellent learning opportunity at the workshop Understanding Reconciliation and Indigenous Knowledge.
Thanks @NWMOCanada for the collaboration! #PISCeS2023
