We were excited to see Hill Labs' earthworm eDNA test featured at the 13th International Symposium on Earthworm Ecology (ISEE13) in Wageningen, The Netherlands. 🌍πŸͺ±

Included in a scientific poster in collaboration with Bioeconomy Science Institute, this work highlights how eDNA technology can provide new insights into earthworm populations and soil health, helping support more informed land management decisions.

It's fantastic to see New Zealand research contributing to global conversations about soil ecosystems, sustainable agriculture, and the role earthworms play beneath our feet.

Our team has been out connecting with the next generation of scientists at recent university careers events in Auckland.

Hill Labs staff attended the University of Auckland's Women in Science event, as well as the Chemistry Careers Evening, meeting students from AUT, Massey University and the University of Waikato. It was great to have so many engaging conversations with students exploring where a career in science could take them.

A big thank you to our team members for representing Hill Labs and inspiring future talent. We look forward to being back on campus again next year!
