Meet eDNA
About
In a nutshell, eDNA – short for Environmental DNA – is DNA left behind in the environment like fingerprints at a crime scene.Professor Paul Nevill from Curtin University has been collecting bird DNA in Jirdarup. Paul is a Molecular Ecologist and is using eDNA to survey the bird community.
Locals may have seen the bags and tags on Banksias late 2025. Paul's team were swabbing flowers to look for bird DNA and he is going to tell us all about it.
To find out more, check Paul out on Gardening Australia on 31 October 2025.
A light afternoon tea will be served from 2.45pm.
Numbers are limited and registration is essential.
A donation of $5 per person is requested to cover the costs of the event.
