🧬 Day 2 of the #GuardIAS #SummerSchool continued in the lab with hands-on #ddPCR training. Participants analysed samples from an experimental setup, gaining experience with a powerful tool for sensitive #eDNA detection and aquatic biosecurity.

🌊🧬 Day 2 of the #GuardIAS #SummerSchool went into the field! At a marina and nearby river in Bodø, participants practiced eDNA sampling using filters, syringes, persistaltic pumps, and POMPOMs, discussing protocols, contamination prevention and how sampling design should match the research question.

🧬🌊 Designing #eDNA surveillance starts with a clear question. At the #GuardIAS #SummerSchool, we explored sampling strategies, active vs passive methods, scalable marine solutions, natural samplers, and how eDNA supports early detection and eradication of #IAS.

I am absolutely flattered to share our review at @natrevbiodiv.bsky.social. Lead by Dr. Camila Ribas! A collaborative/interdisciplinary work where we integrated geological, climatic, ecological and genetic evidence for the region that hosts the largest biodiversity on Earth: the Amazon! Enjoy it! 😃

In Brazil, the seahorse black market is bustling. extrapolating from five boats to the thousands that make up Brazil’s fleet, @sjanefoster says, yields a more striking toll: roughly 2.3 million seahorses every year. www.popsci.com/environment/... via @popsci.bsky.social @projectseahorse.bsky.social

In Brazil, the seahorse black market is bustling

Every year, the country’s fishers accidentally catch millions of seahorses. Where they all go, nobody quite knows.
