Center for Invasive Species and Ecosystem Health

The Center for Invasive Species and Ecosystem Health is a research organization dedicated to studying non-native species that threaten local ecosystems. Their goal is to understand how invasive plants, animals, and pathogens affect native wildlife, agriculture, and habitats. They develop strategies for prevention, early detection, and management of these species to protect ecological balance and biodiversity. By collaborating with government agencies and communities, the center aims to reduce the environmental and economic impacts caused by invasives, ensuring healthier and more resilient ecosystems for the future.
