EnviroDNA

EnviroDNA launched in 2016 to pioneer the delivery of eDNA services to industry. Today, they operate as leaders in research and application, monitoring aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems across Australia and abroad. They deliver comprehensive data and tailored solutions in important areas such as conservation, biosecurity, impact assessments and research purposes. 

EnviroDNA was established as an independent entity by co-founders Dr Paul Umina and Dr Andrew Weeks, spun out of sister-company Cesar Australia after several years of research into aquatic eDNA methods. Umina and Weeks understood the clear power of eDNA as a tool for improving wildlife and biodiversity monitoring and management decisions. With Managing Director, Helen Barclay, and a growing team of molecular science, data science, and service delivery experts, they now steward EnviroDNA to advance the accessibility of science and biodiversity data to industry and community.
