CSI: Birding … barcoding the past, present and future

Medical Sciences

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Article

Abstract

The extinction of an animal is no longer the end of our opportunity to learn new things about its ecology and biology. The same technology that recently reconstructed the genome of the Neanderthal man and the 700,000 year-old horse is also being used to trace the movement of birds around the world.
