 - '@type': TextObject
   abstract: Damian has a multi-disciplinary background combining molecular ecology,
     stable isotopes, geochemistry, and hydrology. As a Research Geneticist in the
     Molecular Ecology Laboratory at the Alaska Science Center he has worked on numerous
     diverse projects to include microsatellites, conversion of microsatellites to
     Next Generation Sequencing, transcriptomes, and mitogenomes. His primary area
     of expertise is the utilization of environmental DNA (eDNA) and its associated
     techniques to answer a diverse array of scientific questions such as identifying
     pathogens, invasive species, diet, community structure, and microbiomes of multiple
     species. Within this skill set he excels at the design, development, and validation
     of multispecies metabarcoding markers which he produces using custom Python
     and Biopython scripts. He is always open to collaboration during all steps of
     a scientific study from initial idea to sampling strategy to data analysis and
     everything in between.
