Science

The scope of our science activities can best be described by looking at our work on the Wollemi Pine. The Wollemi Pine — or ‘dinosaur tree’ — is certainly one of the greatest botanical discoveries of our time. Of course, our scientific programs include much more than this — anything from algae to corpse flowers, from conservation genetics to a virtual herbarium!
