Citizen Science: Where does the fish on my plate come from?

Together with the Geomar Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research we worked on the citizen research project "Fish Detectives" in the science year of seas and oceans 2016*17. Children and young people were asked to collect, identify and send in fish samples from all over Germany, so that possible mislabelling on the packaging could be detected by DNA analysis.
