The North American Beaver Genome Project is an Oregon State University initiative focused on sequencing and studying the genome of the North American beaver (Castor canadensis). Led by OSU’s Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing, the project aims to expand scientific understanding of this industrious animal and its contributions to Oregon’s forest and stream ecosystems. It also seeks to raise awareness among students and the wider Beaver Nation about genome science and the role of university research in understanding the environment.
A crowdfunding campaign held from September 16 to October 30, 2015, successfully raised the $30,000 needed to sequence the beaver genome. The project’s website shares information about its progress, outreach, researchers, acknowledgments, and beaver-related resources, including videos, a gallery, and news about analysis of the completed genome. It also provides a way to access genome data and contact the Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing. The site is archived, with its materials retained for transparency, institutional memory, and scholarly reference.
