Welcome to BioKIC
Our Vision - Biodiversity Knowledge Integration
The Biodiversity Knowledge Integration Center (BioKIC) seeks new solutions to three interconnected topics.
- Generating comparative knowledge of life's diversity.
- Promoting the use of integrative biodiversity informatics.
- Fostering direct and virtual learning experiences with biodiversity data and specimens.
The Center connects a range of genomic, evolutionary, and ecological data biodiversity labs with the Natural History Collections community. This website provides access to our diverse resources and activities.
We at the ASU Biocollections would like to acknowledge the 23 Indigenous Nations that have inhabited this land for centuries. Arizona State University’s campuses are located on ancestral territories of the Akimel O’odham (Pima) and Pee Posh (Maricopa) communities. We are dedicated to supporting Indigenous Nations in achieving data futures of their own making.
