Meet Dr. Paul Hebert, whose curiosity about biodiversity sparked a global approach to identifying species through DNA and the creation of BOLD. Paul’s early research on #DNABarcoding laid the foundation for today’s methods in species identification.

A high-resolution photo of a tiny parasitic wasp viewed from the side against a light background. The wasp has long, slender antennae, transparent veined wings, a shiny black thorax and abdomen, and a distinctive orange ovipositor extending from the tip of its body. The scale bar in the lower left indicates 1 millimeter.
