On September 26th and 27th, Dr. Healy
Hamilton came to Fort Collins to give presentations on her cutting-edge work in
communicating about biodiversity, climate change, and land management.
Dr. Hamilton has a long list of accomplishments and has held many leadership
roles including Director of the Center for Applied Biodiversity Informatics at
the California Academy of Sciences, and co-founder of the Worldviews Network In November she is going to become the Chief Scientist for
NatureServe, and she is currently moving from her home in California to
Washington DC. So we were especially excited that she was able to visit
us at CNHP and talk about our visions for the NatureServe Network of Heritage
Programs and how we can work with her to achieve them. We worked with our
colleague Dr. Dana Winkelman to host her as the seminar speaker for the Fishand Wildlife Conservation Biology Department, where she talked about the
fascinating work she is doing with the Worldviews Network.
