We are beyond excited for the game-changing #eDNA work that @minderoo's OceanOmics team has accomplished. This project enables the public, researchers and conservationists to access real ocean #biodiversity data in an engaging and interactive way through #AI. We are proud to have collaborated on the sampling technology and look forward to continuing our work together to make accessible the scientific data needed to drive change.

“There is always variability in the #ocean. Always variability in biology. Having robust automated technology (like Ascension) that allows us to capture #eDNA is very powerful. The applications are really endless.” - Dr. @EricJRaes, Marine Ecologist, @minderoo.
