🔬 Why museum specimens?
Museum collections hold irreplaceable genetic data, including from endangered or extinct species. These materials offer a powerful window into the past and a practical toolkit for solving today's conservation challenges.

Together with a fantastic team, we’ve developed a set of open-access teaching resources on how museum collections and genomic tools (a.k.a. conservation museomics) can be applied to biodiversity conservation.
