The Living Earth Collaborative is unique in part because of the partnerships among three leading institutions in the study of plant and animal science – Washington University, Missouri Botanical Garden, and Saint Louis Zoo.
By bringing together these three world-class entities, the center harnesses the power of some of the top minds in the world to tackle global challenges. We are rooted in St. Louis with a global focus.
