SUMMARY:An introduction to DNA sequencing - a talk by Sigrid Jakob Friday\, May 13\, 7pm
DESCRIPTION:The talkDNA sequencing has become an integral part of modern mycology. It’s not only helping with the classification of fungi but has revolutionized our understanding of the fungal tree of life. This talks will take us through the many uses (and abuses) of DNA sequencing  explain how DNA sequencing works  what it takes to set up a lab and how to integrate molecular methods with the documenting and collecting clubs are already doing. She’ll also showcase some of the more interesting discoveries from her and the club’s collecting that DNA sequencing has helped uncover. Sigrid Jakob is a community scientist based in Brooklyn  New York. She currently serves as the president of the New York Mycological Society and as board member of the Fungal Diversity Survey (FunDiS)  where she’s also active as a sequence validator. She co-founded the FunDiS Rare 20 conservation challenge as well as a fungi-focused community program for Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery  a first for a public green space in the US. Sigrid has been extracting fungal DNA in her home lab since 2019 and has led many workshops in DNA sequencing. Her favorite fungi are Inocybe and fungi growing on dung.
