Innovative tools for biodiversity monitoring | Canada 🇨🇦

Canada Connect: Coffee Talk with an Early Career Researcher

My research develops innovative, user-friendly environmental DNA (eDNA) tools to monitor biodiversity. By analysing DNA collected from air, flowers, honey bees, we can detect plant and arthropod communities and track changes across landscapes and seasons. These accessible methods empower community members to collect samples independently, enabling scalable, non-invasive biodiversity monitoring and helping us understand how climate and environmental change shape ecosystems.
