Join us for the keynote address Thursday night at the Atheneum, Friday for a full day of science talks and posters, followed by weekend nature walks on Saturday and Sunday.
The goal of the Nantucket Biodiversity Initiative (NBI) Research Program is to increase knowledge of understudied taxonomic groups and of the overall biodiversity of Nantucket, Tuckernuck, Muskeget and surrounding waters. The NBI facilitates collaboration, research and data storage and sharing between on and off-island researchers, conservation interests and the general public. Proceeds from the conference fund our grants program supporting local biodiversity research.
Generously supported by Nantucket Cultural District, Mass Cultural Council and ReMain Nantucket Fund, the four day conference will include talks, presentations, workshops and socializing at Lemon Press. A collaboration of key players from LLNF, NCF, MMA, the Town of Nantucket, UMass Boston Nantucket Field Station, Nantucket Memorial Airport, Tuckernuck Land Trust, Nantucket Walkabout, NLWC, Mass Audubon, Nantucket Land Bank and the Trustees, we’re incredibly excited about this event!
