An event as large as the BioBlitz takes an extraordinary collaboration of dedicated people. No single institution has the expertise and people-power necessary. Over 130 scientists, citizen scientists, students, and local citizens from across Illinois and neighboring Indiana formed 26 teams of specialists covering everything from algae and ants to vascular plants and zooplankton.
We list below the Calumet BioBlitz team leaders.
