Making an Impact in Research & Conservation
|
Conservation outcomes don’t come from publications alone—they come from connecting the right data to the decisions people have to make on the ground. The Kartzinel Lab integrates genomics, ecology, and long-term field research to help partners understand how wildlife populations function, respond to change, and persist. |
Impact at a Glance
- Policy-relevant genomics: dietary DNA metabarcoding and conservation genetics help inform management at practical spatial and temporal scales.
- Partnership-driven work: collaborations with agencies, NGOs, and community partners to align research with conservation priorities.
- Long-term, real ecosystems: programs spanning temperate and tropical systems, from Yellowstone to African savannas and beyond.
- Open resources: protocols, software, and training materials to help others apply genomic tools responsibly and reproducibly.
- Training as impact: students and trainees are the conduits for change—carrying methods and mindsets into academia, agencies, and NGOs.
