Welcome to the University of Nottingham Malaysia!
Welcome to the University of Nottingham Malaysia!
We are pleased to hold the “4th International Workshop for Mangrove Biodiversity Studies by eDNA Metabarcoding” at University of Nottingham Malaysia.
The international collaboration project for eDNA research on global mangroves started in 2020 by obtaining support from JSPS Core to Core, but because of the outbreak of Covid-19, we haven't realized face-to-face activities. Under the difficult situation of the pandemic, we held online symposiums, seminars, and training courses, and sought the chances to expand the international collaboration. Our efforts bore fruits, and we newly obtained international research grants, CRRP Malaysia (APN), e-ASIA JRP, JSPS KAKENHI Fostering Joint International Research (B), and AJ-CORE JRP. Our international collaboration to study the biodiversity of the global mangrove ecosystem has a step forward to the next stage!
This fourth iteration of the workshop series will focus on expanding the reach of our training and the capacity building for young researchers. We will be welcoming 25 participants from 12 countries. This will be our largest and most diverse workshop to date.
In addition to field and lab training, the workshop will include a one-day symposium, and the preparation of one joint manuscript and a policy paper.
