After years of development, it's wonderful to finally see our production model #eDNA Autosampler out in the wild, and in the hands of great scientists. ❤️ Beta testing continues this summer and our plan is to do the first production run this winter.

Inspiring and terrifying talk by @stefanako71 about systemic seafood mislabeling in our supply chains - both fresh and processed. Take home for me: we should all go home and work with our local schools to develop curricula for seafood identification👇

Fascinating talk by Filipe O. Costa evaluating the impacts of filtration volume on #eDNA species richness. 80% of species detected at 5L. Continued to detect more species up to 10L max tested volume. 👀 Looks like 47mm membranes. #FSBI2024 @TheFSBI
