Welcome to the Centre for Biodiversity Analysis
Biodiversity is not static - it is constantly changing. The current patterns of biodiversity we observe today, and work to protect and restore, reflect evolutionary processes, past environmental change and future adaptation potential.
The Centre for Biodiversity Analysis (CBA) is a collaborative initiative of the ANU, CSIRO and University of Canberra that connects scientists and their research to exploit new and emerging technologies in the discovery, understanding, conservation and restoration of Australia’s unique biodiversity in the face of accelerating environmental change.
Explore the impactful research at the Centre. Our work drives biodiversity conservation through innovative science, collaborative partnerships and data-driven solutions to address global ecological challenges.
Discover CBA grants and funding opportunities at ANU. Support innovative biodiversity research and collaborative projects addressing global ecological challenges through financial and resource assistance.
Explore the CBA Workshops at ANU, offering a series of engaging events that bring together researchers, professionals, and students to discuss key topics in business, economics and social sciences.
The EBL is a joint initiative of ANU and CSIRO that seeks to support training, collaboration and cross-pollination.
The CBA was a partner of the recent national Bogong Moth Summit, which consisted of workshops, discussion panels and a climb up Mount Kosciuszko to see the moths flying at dusk.
The CBA has announced the first round of successful projects selected to trial the use of the DiversityScanner technology.
In an Australian-first, researchers, students, managers and other stakeholders got the opportunity to observe the DiversityScanner technology.
Explore cutting-edge biodiversity research in a series of fast-paced talks—from thermal sensitivity and parasite genomics to airborne eDNA, population histories, the Bogong Moth Summit, and the Diversity Scanner. Don’t miss this snapshot of innovation in environmental science!
Ivan Koludarov visiting from the Technical University of Munich's Department of Scientific Computing will present a workshop on genome annotation methods and their application to difficult to annotate multicopy gene families.
Professor Fred Allendorf from the University of Montana will discuss the relationship between effective population size and allelic variation and its implications for species conservation status.
