ACAD featured on ABC Science Show - Identifying the millions of species yet to be classified
Together with international researchers, ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ of Adelaide were interviewed on theÌýABC Science Show aboutÌýnew genetic tools may hold the key to identifying the millions of species yet to be classified.
Researchers have now described aboutÌýÌýon our planet - but it's believed there areÌýÌýthat haven't been classified as yet.
Completing an inventory of living things on Earth has been an elusive and long-running endeavour for scientists. However, researchers believe new genetic tools may hold the key to finally completing this library of life.
Those tools may also allow us to compile an encyclopedia of information about each individual species - and they're even allowing scientists to peer back into the past.
Included in the interview from the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ of Adelaide were:
Dr Kieren Mitchell
Post-doctoral researcher at the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥n Centre for Ancient DNA
Associate Professor Jeremy Austin
Deputy Director of the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥n Centre for Ancient DNA
Director of the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥n Centre for Ancient DNA
