A huge well done & thank you to everyone involved in our Hub led DNA-focussed @Scottish_FwGrp meeting! Delighted to support a vibrant knowledge exchange on use of new technologies in #freshwaters - all credit to our agenda contributors, key partners & team making it possible 🙌
Citizen science and research from our CSO Dr. Mehrdad Hajibabaei @M_Hajibabaei in the spotlight: DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Hidden Biodiversity https://t.co/3KExBKVfp2
DNA isn't only used by forensic scientists, SEPA scientists have been discovering a new use for environmental DNA (eDNA) to trace species and gather evidence to assess our environment.
Find out more about eDNA and the work we're doing alongside NatureScot, and the Scottish Government’s Marine Directorate - https://t.co/udWa7UZU8T
Well, that’s a wrap! All the samples taken for our 2-Esks pilot. 52 samples, 2 rivers 4 techniques. A-Team! Look out for the results at the next @Scottish_FwGrp meet in October! #DNA#CitizenScience@Riverflies@Buzz_dont_tweet@WildFishCons
A few familiar faces there! Great to see project work in action & can’t wait to find out the results at October’s @Scottish_FwGrp meeting 👀#freshwaters#ecology#DNAtiools
Not sure where the 2 airport staff have gone, who claimed they were the solution to the trolley problem. They’ve disappeared and still no trolleys……. Big Edinburgh service culture……
