Kakapo Genomic Sequencing w/ Joseph Guhlin: September 18th 2023

This week on Tomorrow’s World, we’re talking about how the latest high-sequencing genome technology can be used for conservation efforts after first being used for Kākāpō population studies.

Leilani spoke to Dr Joseph Guhlin from the University of Otago and Genomics Aotearoa about the significance of the new sequencing technology, how it can be used for other endangered species, and Genomics Aotearoa’s role in New Zealand research.
