Invasive species pose a major threat to biodiversity, ecosystems, and economies worldwide. Traditional monitoring methods often struggle with early detection, leading to delayed responses. This webinar explores how environmental DNA (eDNA) has revolutionized the detection and monitoring of invasive species, offering a non-invasive, highly sensitive, and cost-effective solution.
Join us for a practical guide on how to use eDNA for invasive species monitoring, from sample collection in the field to laboratory analysis and data interpretation. We’ll also cover real-world applications, limitations to be aware of, and how to integrate eDNA tools into existing monitoring programs.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the principles of eDNA technology and its applications.
- Learn practical steps for eDNA sampling, analysis, and data interpretation.
- Identify the limitations and challenges of using eDNA.
- Explore strategies for integrating eDNA into monitoring programs.
- Date: April 23, 2025
- Time: 1:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
- Where: Online (Zoom link provided upon registration)
Whether you’re a conservation practitioner, researcher, or policymaker, this session will provide valuable insights into using eDNA as a powerful tool against biological invasions.
Past Events
The mining industry operates in some of the most ecologically sensitive regions, where biodiversity management is critical for regulatory compliance, sustainability, and corporate responsibility. Traditional monitoring methods are labor-intensive and limited in scope, but environmental DNA (eDNA) is changing the game. By detecting species from genetic traces in water, soil, or air, eDNA offers a cost-effective, non-invasive, and comprehensive approach to ecosystem monitoring. This webinar will explore how eDNA enhances environmental impact assessments, supports mine site rehabilitation, and helps companies meet sustainability goals.
Join us to learn how this technology is shaping the future of responsible mining.
