Gabriele Zenato Lazzari (PhD student) is interested in exploring the potential of genomics in the conservation of endangered species, in particular, the jaguar (Panthera onca). By developing a genome-enabled SNP panel for large-scale genetic, ecological and forensic analyses of jaguars, she aims to provide a reproducible, low cost and high-throughput tool for geographic assignment and population management of this species. Additionally, she is also monitoring genome- and immunome-wide genetic diversity of jaguar populations from Brazil and Argentina in order to assist the species long-term recovery.
