Polls are not easy here, but curious if the #eDNA community can comment on what sequencing platform you use most for your metabarcoding work?

Well a new adventure is about to start! This week was my first as fulltime CEO at SimplexDNA. I am excited to have made the jump from academia to empower the use of #eDNA technology throughout the world.While lots of papers will come out from my ETH years, I say goodbye to the 'Professor' title

💯 fab work @marinednadude.bsky.social + team on minimim reporting for #metabarcoding. At Natural England, we’re building on this to create a readiness framework for #metabarcoding assays, and mobilising DNA data with partners. All key to ⬆️ useability + reliability of DNA data! 💪🏻 🧬 stay tuned 👀

The first pre-print from Jake Jackman's PhD on #eDNA monitoring of the River Mersey, UK. We compare multiple filter types across a saline gradient (marine to freshwater) in a strongly tidal estuary. All filters generally work well, including the passive metaprobe! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I can't hold it in any longer..the data is rolling in from the #LeDNA project and damn it is crazy good. This is the most diverse COI dataset I have ever seen! Over 72'000 ESVs from 382 lakes...the diversity is blowing my mind. And the AVITI sequencer is the new kid on the block ladies and gentlemen

Net of Life concept I am convinced of the more I understand #eDNA. There is just no way that all the eDNA can be floating around and no life taking it up and trying to do things with it. Antibiotic resistant genes e.g. Check out this thought provoking piece www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
