ZYMO RESEARCH SPONSORS THE MOLECULAR ECOLOGY WORKING GROUP AT THE WILDLIFE SOCIETY’S 2024 ANNUAL CONFERENCE

The Wildlife Society: Baltimore 2024

Zymo Research is proud to announce our sponsorship of The Wildlife Society’s (TWS) 2024 Annual Conference, contributing $5,000 to support the Molecular Ecology Working Group (MEWG). TWS is a leading network of over 11,000 wildlife professionals committed to advancing conservation through science, community, and professional excellence. MEWG, a key subdivision of TWS, promotes the application of molecular biology to wildlife ecology, management, and conservation efforts.

The 2024 TWS Annual Conference, taking place in Baltimore, Maryland from October 19-23, 2024, is one of the premier events for wildlife professionals, offering a platform for innovative research, skill-building workshops, and professional networking. The conference is a critical opportunity for professionals and students alike to exchange knowledge on the latest advancements in wildlife science and conservation.

Zymo Research’s partnership with MEWG is especially meaningful, as it highlights our shared commitment to advancing scientific innovation for a better tomorrow. MEWG's' focus on utilizing genomics, eDNA, and noninvasive genetic sampling to monitor biodiversity, track invasive species, and inform conservation strategies aligns closely with our mission to empower researchers with high-quality molecular tools that promote responsible science and environmental stewardship.

By facilitating research that ranges from species identification through eDNA to population genomics for understanding gene flow and adaptation, MEWG embodies the same commitment to environmental sustainability and scientific progress that Zymo Research strives to achieve. Together, we are pushing the boundaries of molecular ecology to foster a deeper understanding of ecosystems, driving solutions that protect both biodiversity and the future of our planet.

“With the support of Zymo Research, the Molecular Ecology working group of The Wildlife society is working towards our goal of promoting scientific advancement by applying molecular techniques to wildlife ecology, management, and conservation," said Rachael Giglio, MEWG Chair. “We thank Zymo Research in helping us promote our working group and the utility of molecular ecology in wildlife management and conservation.”

As part of our sponsorship, Zymo Research is proud to contribute to several key initiatives at this year’s conference, including molecular ecology-focused workshops, networking opportunities, and student awards designed to foster growth and innovation in the field. We are honored to support the next generation of wildlife professionals and contributing to research that safeguards ecosystems for the future.
