Message from the directors

IEMM also provides training opportunities for the next generation of scientists, giving them hands-on research experience and a strong background that enables them to address critical issues relevant to resource management, monitoring, and ecosystem health. We’re interested in developing new opportunities for practitioners and early career scientists, so please contact us if you or your organization is interested in learning more.
We look forward to establishing more collaborations and collaborative projects with new partners in the San Diego bioregion and beyond.
