Summary
A Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) National Advisory Process was held virtually from July 6–8, 2020. The focus of the meeting was to provide peer-reviewed science advice and guidance on the use of targeted Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis for the management of Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) and Species at Risk (SAR).
The meeting included discussion around how to improve eDNA reporting standards through study design, sample analysis, and results reporting. The discussion was guided by several presentations given by the lead authors of the associated working paper or led by the meeting co-chairs.
