# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Casting a wider net: Protein-based wildlife forensics when DNA fails
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 14 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: The study of proteins is emerging as a potentially powerful tool in wildlife forensics. Proteins can deliver species-level and tissue-specific information which can identify samples to species-level or sometimes population-level, in the absence of preserved DNA. In this presentation, I will introduce protein fingerprinting, one of the main techniques for protein-based sample identity, and how this can be applied to a variety of wildlife forensic-related research questions, such as the analysis of traditional Chinese medicines, or uncovering mislabelling in the food industry.

Talk starts at 19:30, but we'll be there from 19:00 so join us for a drink beforehand!
