Once the Naturalists Are Extinct, Biodiversity Will Follow
What's happenin' CC? Good news from UNC-Charlotte. Oh, how this story makes me laugh my evil laugh! -NF
UNC Charlotte is donating its collection of Piedmont plant and flower specimens to Mecklenburg County.
The school's biology department is moving away from natural sciences, part of a national shift to other types of research. The space the collection takes up is needed for other things.
"Every university in the country is having this movement towards molecular biology and microbiology," UNCC biology professor Larry Barden said. "That is where the grant money is right now."
