BRI news stories have appeared in many regional, national, and international news outlets. These stories help promote awareness of our work, but also promote the general issues of conservation biology and the need to continue research in wildlife health and its implications to human health.
BRI's researchers are available to talk to journalists and provide expert information on both their work and the broader topics of their expertise.

Ever since it was established in 1998, the Biodiversity Research Institute in Gorham has given attention to loons, expanding their studies to include habitats in New York's Adirondack Mountains, Washington state, Alaska, Montana, Louisiana, and Mexico. Most recently, BRI has also undertaken work with Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, said Jim Paruk, director of the institute's Center for Loon Conservation.
