Citizen Science - Stay Curious, Utah! 

Citizen Science is an important part of work here at NHMU. Through citizen science projects, community members can make an impact to biodiversity research by making observations about the world around them. Join Ellen Eiriksson, NHMU Citizen Science Manager, and an NHMU Educator to learn more about what projects are currently happening at NHMU and how we can all participate. Sessions for K-2nd, 3rd-4th and 5th-6th grade will have a short presentation with a Q&A. We will also have a storytime for our K-2nd grade students.
