🌎🧬 Last week, two of our postgraduate researchers from @plymuni.bsky.social attended @nerc-eof.bsky.social Metabarcoding & eDNA wetlab and bioinformatics workshop at @sheffielduni.bsky.social! #eDNA #TrainingCourse #NEOF #NERCFunded #PhDLife #Metabarcoding #Bioinformatics @victoriamann.bsky.social

Did you know the study of environmental DNA (eDNA) of microbes could transform how we understand and protect freshwater ecosystems? Dr Amy Thorpe, a molecular ecologist at UKCEH, shares insights from the first national survey of microbial eDNA in English rivers 🦠🔬

DNA fragments in air, soil and water, known as environmental or eDNA, could be used in crime investigations, to monitor pollution and enviromental quality, to warn of biosecurity threats and more according to a new report from the Royal Society. royalsociety.org/news/2025/03...

We are delighted to announce that the 11th #ukdnawg conference will be hosted by the @royalsociety.org London on 13-14th May 2025. For more information, and to register, follow the links from ukeof.org.uk/our-work/ukdna 🧬 #eDNA #biodiversity

How, what, and where of environmental DNA #eDNA 🤔 Happy to share our newest publication exploring how volume of water processed and the pore size of the filter impacts the diversity of plant and animal communities captured via metabarcoding. (1/8) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
