OBON Community Webinars – ASIA-PACIFIC Session

Building on the success of last year’s OBON Network Spotlight webinar series, we are pleased to bring the OBON project community together once again through the 2026 OBON Project Community Webinar Series.

Please note that this year’s webinars were only open to those directly involved with OBON (ie SAC members, project teams and working group members).  However, the presentation recordings will be made available on OBON’s YouTube channel shortly.

The third ‘Asia-Pacific’ Session, took place on 13 October, 06:00-07:30 (UK Time), as part of our preparations for the OBON Annual Meeting in Dhaka, Bangladesh (30 Nov to 4 Dec 2026).

The webinar included the following presentations:

  • OBON Introduction
  • Citizens of the Sea – Erin Bomati, Citizens of the Sea
  • ANEMONE Global: Advancing eDNA-based Biodiversity Monitoring – Imane Sioud, Tohoku University (pre-recording)
  • OceanOmics: Monitoring & Protecting Ocean Life – Eric Raes, Minderoo Foundation
  • BLOWOMICS: Novel Perspectives on Non-invasive Cetacean Research Using microRNA Biomarkers in the Exhaled Breath – Dr Courtney Waugh, University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia

Please note that the recording has been edited to remove the Q&A, SAC reflections, and discussion sections of the webinar
