Genetic monitoring has evolved significantly in recent decades, emerging as an essential tool for conservation and management of many species. When coupled with noninvasive genetic sampling, it yields unprecedented insights into abundance, sex ratio, social structure, population dynamics, distribution, and migration, also for species where this previously seemed unattainable. Despite numerous advantages, the practical implementation of these methods still presents substantial logistical and technical challenges, both in the field and in the lab. Conservation managers must be aware of these challenges and the means to address them to effectively harness these techniques to their full potential.

𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐳̌ 𝐒𝐤𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐬̌𝐞𝐤 is an expert in the fields of ecology, conservation genetics and conservation biology. He has many years of experience in research and genetic monitoring of large mammals. He has led all genetic monitoring of large carnivores in Slovenia and Croatia and coordinated laboratory and data analyses for monitoring of various species of large carnivores and cervids in BIH, Montenegro, around Lake Prespa (Greece - Northern Macedonia - Albania), in Romania (Transylvania) and in Slovakia (High Tatras). He is a lecturer in several undergraduate and postgraduate courses at the University of Ljubljana (conservation genetics, bioinformatics, ecology, GIS), lectured conservation genetics for postgraduate students and researchers at the summer school in South Korea and conservation biology at the University of Maribor. He has been involved in the application and implementation of six LIFE projects (LIFE SloWolf, LIFE DINALP BEAR, LIFE LYNX, LIFE WolfAlps EU, LIFE Wild Wolf), one Interreg project (DinaRis) and several national and international scientific projects. He is a member of the IUCN Species Survival Commission "Bear Specialist Group" and a co-founder of DivjaLabs Ltd.

WWF Adria & WWF CEE are implementing 2 LC projects:
1. “Large Carnivores in Central and South -Eastern Europe - connected and coexisting with people” (funded by WWF Belgium)
2. „Leveraging impact of Large Carnivore conservation efforts in Central and South -Eastern Europe“ (funded by WWF Sweden)

These projects were focused on genetics and genomics od wildlife in several of its activities, which is why this workshop was needed.
