Overcoming Conservation Challenges



Our traditional conservation tools are failing to keep pace with the mounting challenges:

Galapagos conservation is uniquely challenging. Isolated island ecosystems, invasive species, and increasing human impact create urgent, complex problems. Genomics gives us powerful tools for both understanding and solving these issues.

Hidden Damage: Plastic pollution’s true impact on seafloor ecosystems remains invisible.

Climate Blindspot: We cannot predict which species will adapt or vanish as oceans warm.

Silent Collapse: Overfishing decimates populations while we lack tools to measure the full devastation.
