BRI’s Mission

From the moment he captured his first loon on Michigan’s Seney National Wildlife Refuge, David Evers has been a champion of wildlife, incorporating innovative approaches to traditional research methods. As the founder, executive director, and chief scientist of BRI, Dr. Evers has made great strides in bringing critical ecological issues to the forefront of our nation’s and the world’s consciousness.
BRI’s mission is to assess emerging threats to wildlife and ecosystems through collaborative research, and to use scientific findings to advance environmental awareness and inform decision makers.
“Prioritizing diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace is long overdue. Bringing together many voices and unique perspectives is not only an invaluable exercise but provides a singular strength to our scientific programs.”
