Conservation efforts among Wikiri, Centro Jambatu, and The O'Connell Lab at Harvard University

Population Genetics and Conservation

Amphibian populations are declining worldwide due to habitat loss and the spread of harmful pathogens. We have partnered with the Centro Jambatu and WIKIRI to use the genomics tools developed in the O'Connell Lab to aid in conservation efforts by tracking populations of Ecuadorian amphibians, particularly Oophaga sylvatica.
