Upon receiving the 2020 Midori Prize for Biodiversity<\/strong><\/a> last fall, Hebert announced that he would donate his prize winnings to locations challenged by lack of access to funding for DNA barcoding and analysis. Hebert\u2019s lab is currently analyzing Malaise trap samples collected from Argentina, Australia, Egypt, Georgia, Lebanon, Mexico, Suriname, and Pakistan.<\/p>\n

The research site locations are part of the Global Malaise Program (GMP)<\/a>, an international collaboration between the CBG and dozens of contributors worldwide. GMP aims to acquire detailed temporal and spatial information on terrestrial arthropod communities across the globe. Two million specimens have already been sequenced, resulting in more than 153,000 species identifications.<\/p>\n

GMP is also a part of iBOL\u2019s seven-year BIOSCAN research program, involving researchers in 40 nations.<\/p>\n
