Impact/Purpose:
This presentation, describing EPA/ORD’s research in the area of DNA-based tools for biological assessments, was invited by the Invasive Species Committee of the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies. The presentation gives a fairly broad overview, first introducing the basis for this research – the call for invasive species early detection monitoring under the Great lakes Restoration Initiative -- then summarizing a variety of completed and ongoing research related to fish and aquatic invertebrate assessments and capacity building for DNA-based monitoring.
