Congratulations to Dr. Peter Krell, who was recently awarded a Genome Canada/OGI Project Grant.

The proposal entitled ‘Disruptive Innovations in Genomics (DIG) Phase 1’ is a two-year $234,000 (total) award. Peter, in collaboration with Daniel Doucet from Forestry Canada, will be working on developing an ‘antenna in a box’ system for early detection of invasive insect species.
