Have you ever feel tired from active sampling all the time? Our PhD student - Luke is developing a #passive sampling method of #eDNA using artificial sponges! 🧽
Some of the fieldwork moments
Awesome job by @taneikabar with her PhD qualifying seminar today. Showcasing her research progress in improving our understanding of local and global tick biodiversity and ecological patterns.
a new group of experts has entered the villa 🤣 Super successful workshop @eDNAcollab!
Had a great time in Wuhan, China last week. I was attending “The 5th Chinese #Chironomidae Symposium”. I got a chance to learn, discuss and present the topic that I am studying for my master degree. 😊 Such a fruitful and interesting trip!
Learning more from the expert @MicaelaHellstr1 today! @GuibertIsis @LinBaian22 @Karen_the_daren
Day 9: lecture and practical on advanced visualisation Who doesn’t want a nice graph/table? 📊
Day 8: ggplot&phyloseq practical + data analysis discussion Almost there🧑💻
Day 7: Taxonomy assignment & Introduction to R 💪🏼Keep learning
Day 6: Computer lab - Bioinformatics Stepping into the 2nd week, our guest lecturers @gertjanjeunen & @VascoElbrecht introduced us the coding basics and alternate pipelines of bioinformatics.
Day 5: Gel imaging, discussion with @eDNAcollab, bioinformatics intro and evening social. All charged for upcoming week 2 💪 Many thanks again to the @croucherFDN and @HKUSBS for their support
Day 4: Next gen sequencing methods, primer design & library prep lab - still smiling on a busy Thursday
it’s important to stay professional in a lab environment 😆 thankfully the #eDNAworkshop showed us the ropes
Day 3: eDNA extraction Pulling DNA out of our samples
Learning a lot at HKU’s international #eDNAworkshop! Today we went to the field to learn clean sample collection methods :) @Xiaoyier3 @EdnaEecology
Day 2: Fieldwork day Time to collect some eDNA
⛅️It’s always sampling season for people who study Chironomids… Elaine has been setting out Malaise Traps around Hong Kong streams these days, with the heavy support from Gabriel and numbers of student helpers. Will they find some cool chironomids in the sample?

Thank you, @theBentoLab, for promoting my latest (pre-print) paper that aims to explain DNA extractions in a beneficial and explanatory way for molecular #ecologists and #conservation managers! @eDNAcollab @eDNA_Society @EdnaEecology @eDNAresources
For anyone wanting to learn more about DNA extraction and eDNA, here's a very useful preprint by @jess_rieder and colleagues that aims to help ecologists, conservation managers, and future eDNA researchers understand how DNA extraction methods work. It's written for readers…
