Submit the most intriguing mammal you know for a chance to win free whole genome sequencing
We're looking for unusual, understudied, rare, remarkeable, or otherwise fascinating mammals from anywhere in the world. Whether it's a species with extraordinary adaptations, an unexplored evolutionary history, unusual behavior, or unique ecological significance, we want to hear about it.
Five selected submissions will recieve free whole-genome sequencing, providing a high-quality genetic resource for their furry friend at no cost. The resulting genome analysis will be released as open-source scientific data, freely available for researchers, conservationists, educators, and curious minds everywhere to explore and build off of.
Don't have affiliation with a university, research institute, museum, or company? No worries!
You don't need to be academic or institutional creditials; anyone can partake. If you know a mammal with a compelling story and a strong case for why its genome should be sequenced, you're eligible to participate. This is an opportunity to help expand our understanding of mammalian diversity and create valueable biological data accessible to the world.
