Hi all,
I’m an iNaturalist user and writer and I’m considering pitching a story to a magazine about use of DNA barcoding in the amateur naturalist community.
I’m looking for anyone who may use Oxford Nanopore’s MinION thumb drive-sized device (https://store.nanoporetech.com/us/minion.html) or a similar device in their naturalist hobby. I’d want to interview folks about how they use it.
I’m hoping to hear from people by mid-day Monday, January 15th, as the particular magazine is closing pitches for the issue I have in mind (it’s a special issue on technology and ‘play’). Actual interviews would take place later – I just need to have interview candidates to create the article pitch.
Responses after Monday, January 15 could still be useful but I’d have to pitch it somewhere else, and I think it’s a perfect story for this specific issue.
