The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) is a collaborative, digital, open infrastructure that pulls together Australian biodiversity data from multiple sources, making it accessible and reusable.
The Australian Biological Resources Study (ABRS) provides national leadership and support for the discovery, naming and classification of Australia’s living organisms. They do this because information on Australia’s biodiversity, provided through taxonomy, underpins knowledge and decision-making across government, science and industry.
In 2016, CSIRO announced that it would invest $13 million in the Synthetic Biology Future Science Platform (SynBio FSP). SynBio was identified as a rapidly expanding multi-billion dollar industry with significant potential for generating societal benefits and commercial opportunities.
The C4 Rice Project is one of the scientific ‘Grand Challenges’ of the 21st Century. Researchers from 7 institutions, including the ANU RSB, in 5 countries are working together to apply innovative scientific approaches to the development of high yielding rice varieties for smallholder farmers.
Founded in 1912, FASEB began with a small group of dedicated scientists, from three independent organizations, who wanted to provide a forum for educational meetings, develop publications, and disseminate results of biological research.
The Society for Conservation Biology (SCB) serves as the premier international membership society for professionals, students and non-profits dedicated to advancing the science and practice of conserving biodiversity.
The Catalogue of Life is a comprehensive index of the world's species (animals, plants, fungi, and microbes). Can be searched by common or scientific name.
The Society’s fundamental purpose, reflected in its founding Charters of the 1660s, is to recognise, promote, and support excellence in science and to encourage the development and use of science for the benefit of humanity.
SCBI scientists tackle some of today’s most complex conservation challenges by applying and sharing what they learn about animal behavior and reproduction, ecology, genetics, migration, and conservation sustainability.
