Our Services

Develop and conduct research to answer ecological and wildlife health questions.

Molecular assay development and sequencing using Nanopore Technology or Illumina library preparation-based assays. Examples include:

• qPCR for salmon genetics from scat

• GTseq assay for individual ID of host from scat

• eDNA based assays

3 Day eDNA intensive workshop catered to your interests/needs. In person or virtual.

Hourly virtual assistance with bioinformatics/analysis of genetic/molecular data. 

We aim to help communities/organizations doing conservation work increase their capacity to conduct the monitoring research needed for conservation/restoration efforts. We offer a program that is modular to fit the needs of a variety of organizations. This includes the following:

• Molecular Laboratory set-up.

• Training for community members to do laboratory processing, bioinformatic processing, and analysis

• Continued support for organizations/communities to conduct conservation research

Molecular laboratory processing of samples for the following type of data production

• Metabarcoding/Microbiome sequencing

• GTseq for Harbor Seal ID (more species possible, but assay development is required)

• qPCR/detection based tests

• Metagenomic sequencing

Bioinformatics and downstream analysis of sequencing data including:

• Metabarcoding/Microbiome

• GTseq 

• Metagenomics
