Sat | 06/23/2018 | 15:11 Center for Integrative Biodiversity Discovery Center for Integrative Biodiversity Discovery The world is facing a biodiversity crisis—countless species remain undiscovered while known ecosystems are rapidly deteriorating due to climate change, habitat loss, and human impact. The Center for Integrative Biodiversity Discovery (CIBD) was established to confront this challenge head-on. Our mission is to accelerate the discovery, documentation, and understanding of Earth’s vast and largely unexplored biodiversity before it disappears.
