- Research in ecology and conservation biology at the University of Nevada, Reno has a rich tradition. During the 1990’s, the Department of Biology at the University of Nevada, Reno established a Biological Resources Research Center with many collaborators working on issues related to biodiversity conservation in Nevada as part of the Nevada Biodiversity Initiative. The director of the BRRC during its eleven years of existence was C. Richard Tracy, who is a professor in the Department of Biology, and a member of the EECB graduate program. Recently, UNR has established a new university-wide Academy of the Environment, and the BRRC was coincidentally closed. However, the research conducted by the collaborators in the former BRRC continues, and a good bit of the activities in research, teaching, and outreach is summarized in this website.
