Biobanking Conference to focus on innovations in biodiversity conservation

# Cape Town’s 2025 Joint Biobanking Conference is expected to focus on innovations in biodiversity biobanking. Discussions will include advanced techniques for collecting, preserving, and managing biological samples. Key topics will be centred around the use of artificial intelligence in biodiversity data analysis, ethical and quality standards for biobanks, and global collaboration to safeguard genetic diversity. The conference later this year will also highlight the role of biobanks in conservation and long-term environmental research.
