View of BRI’s office in Portland Maine (note the Motus tower on the right).
Rooted at our headquarters in Portland, Maine, BRI’s work relies on a collaborative team of researchers, field biologists, and support staff operating on-site and remotely across the globe. Integrating knowledge and skills across multiple scientific disciplines, we conduct independent research to protect biodiversity, inform sound decision-making, and advance environmental health worldwide.
Whether working out in the field, analyzing data in the lab, or coordinating projects remotely, each team member brings a distinct perspective that strengthens our collective impact.
