Project Fully Funded - Thank You for Your Support!

We are thrilled to announce that our project, "Can cost-effective, compact deepwater sensors and eDNA samplers unveil the deep-sea biodiversity of the Philippines?" has been fully funded!

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our backers and supporters who believed in the importance of this research and contributed to making this project a reality. Your generous support will enable us to advance our efforts in exploring the deep-sea biodiversity of the Philippines using innovative and affordable technologies both in country and across the globe! Maraming salamat (Many thanks)!

Next Steps:

  • Design Phase: We will begin working on the design of the cost-effective, compact deepwater sensors and eDNA samplers, working closely with partner engineers and experts. This is a crucial step to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of our equipment in deep-sea environments.

  • Updates: We are committed to keeping all our backers and supporters informed about our progress. Regular updates will be posted to share our design milestones, fieldwork preparations, and initial findings.

Once again, thank you for your invaluable support. We are excited to embark on this journey and contribute to the understanding and conservation of deep-sea biodiversity in the Philippines.

Best regards,

Titus Cañete and the Research Team

About This Project

The project aims to develop a compact, cost-effective deepwater sensors & environmental DNA (eDNA) samplers to revolutionize deepwater research, in areas where such studies are limited. Overcoming the drawbacks of traditional, costly methods like Niskin bottles, the new design aims to enhance accessibility and frequency of deepwater ecosystem studies. This innovation could dramatically improve our knowledge of deep-sea biodiversity offering significant contributions to global ocean conservation.
