Biodiversity and Sustainability Solutions Lab
The Biodiversity and Sustainability Solutions (BISONS) Lab aims to contribute toward finding solutions for sustainable futures that can benefit people and nature. Our research focuses on developing new insights on human-nature interactions and using that information to enhance biodiversity conservation and sustainability efforts. We are an international and interdisciplinary research group, and draw from a range of approaches and methods for our research projects. We are based at the Biodiversity Unit of the University of Turku, in the lovely city of Turku.
