Using science to inform action
At Nemours Wildlife Foundation, we help produce objective science and research to inform effective conservation strategies. Nemours leads collaborative scientific programs, bringing together expertise from throughout the research community. We believe scientific research should produce actionable solutions that are both effective and scalable to address conservation challenges throughout our region, the country, and the world.

Through the 10,000 acre “living laboratory” of Nemours, we offer unparalleled and nearly unlimited research opportunities. In 2021 we added our Wiggers Laboratory, which offers a state-of-the-art facility for scientists to conduct their work. In 2023, we added a dormitory facility that offers housing for graduate researchers and undergraduate interns. And in 2024, we cut the ribbon on the duPont Conservation Hall, complete with high quality audio-visual system and seating for upwards of 60 people, providing a modern venue to share research findings and management techniques with a variety of audiences.
