About the Barcode Bulletin
ILLUMINATING THE SCIENCE, STORIES, AND PEOPLE DRIVING DNA BARCODING RESEARCH
The Barcode Bulletin is an editorially-independent online publication launched by the International Barcode of Life (iBOL) Consortium to promote public understanding of DNA barcoding and its diverse applications.
We are committed to sharing compelling scientific stories from around the world with the aim of strengthening the DNA barcoding community, facilitating knowledge-sharing amongst scientists and society, and enhancing our understanding of planetary biodiversity.
