Biosecurity
We provide cost-effective solutions for diagnostics and monitoring of invasive and pathogenic species. Using environmental DNA technologies such as qPCR or LAMP we can detect individual species in environmental samples. This includes identifying vectors of transmission such as equipment and clothing. We have assays for common problem species including Phytophthora, and can develop custom assays for other species. We can also assist in developing low cost in-house monitoring programs using eDNA for land managers.
Environmental DNA
Traditional environmental monitoring techniques are limited when it comes to studying rare or cryptic organisms. Using next generation sequencing we can provide comprehensive biodiversity assessments using environmental DNA. We have experience developing eDNA studies, laboratory work and data analysis. We can also develop assays to monitor endangered species and other species of interest. We specialise in involving the community in our projects and love to work with grass roots environmental organisations.
Mycology
With expertise gained cultivating gourmet mushrooms in Australia and overseas, we can advise on best practice and environmental sustainability in all stages of the production process. This includes culturing, fruiting and breeding strains. We also have experience with medicinal fungi, developing and testing mycomaterials, microscopy and genetic sequencing of fungi. We can provide training courses as well as professional consultations.
Education
With our partner organisation MYCOmmunity Applied Mycology, we have extensive experience in education, science communication, engagement and citizen science. We can provide training tailored to the needs of your organisation on topics such as biosecurity, laboratory techniques and fungal ecology. We also work with schools, libraries, community organisations and local government to deliver science education accessible to diverse audiences.
