Ocean Genome Legacy

Ocean Genome Legacy (OGL) is a non-profit organization dedicated to collecting, preserving, and providing access to the genetic material of marine organisms. By storing DNA samples, tissues, and genetic data, OGL supports scientific research, conservation efforts, and the discovery of new medicines. These samples help scientists study marine biodiversity, understand environmental changes, and develop new technologies. Essentially, OGL acts as a biological library, safeguarding the genetic diversity of ocean life for future generations and advancing our knowledge of marine ecosystems.
