The Natural Science Collections Alliance is a Washington, D.C. based non-profit association that supports natural science collections, their human resources, the institutions that house them, and their research activities for the benefit of science and society.
Our members are part of an international community of museums, botanical gardens, herbaria, universities and other institutions that house natural science collections and utilize them in research, exhibitions, academic and informal science education, and outreach activities.
Membership in the NSC Alliance links you to a network of institutions, scientists and other professionals in North America through which you can share news, information and common concerns — and help shape the future of our community.
