Centre for Biodiversity GenomicsCentre for Biodiversity GenomicsLeads the world in developing and applying DNA-based systems for species identification. Sequence diversity in short, standardized gene regions (DNA barcodes) enables fast, inexpensive, and accurate species discrimination. An efficient and cost-effective approach, DNA barcoding is not only transforming humanity’s capacity to understand biodiversity, but it’s also helping us to protect it. The CBG also coordinates the International Barcode of Life consortium, supporting researchers and organizations across 40 countries, and leads BIOSCAN, a $180M global research program exploring species discovery, species interactions, and species distribution. |
