The Objective of this seventh workshop is to introduce all the participants to novel and alternative techniques for the analysis of genetic materials. Feasibility, costs and opportunities will be discussed by the speakers and case studies will be presented. The different techniques will be discussed highlighting advantages and disadvantages of each technique and what specific research questions can be addressed with each of the new tools. Introduction to whole genome and non-targeted genome-subsampling methods, and eDNA will be some of the discussed emerging techniques.
Duration: 210 minutes
