CNRE Third Thursday Lunch & Learn - Citizen science in natural resources: How volunteers are making a difference

Citizen science is the involvement of people who are not professional scientists in real forms of scientific study. Through the Virginia Master Naturalists program, citizen scientists are making important contributions to natural resources research and conservation, greatly increasing the capacity of what professional scientists and land managers can do alone. Join us to explore examples of impactful citizen science and to learn how you can get involved in citizen science, regardless of your background.
