Workgroup Information Conservation Biology |
|
| Summary | The mission of this multicampus workgroup is to plan and offer opportunities in the multidisciplinary and applied field of conservation biology, including research, education, and service-oriented activities such as organizing a UC Summer Symposium in Conservation Biology, maintaining a UC conservation biology website, and providing expertise for state issues in conservation biology. |
