The BioME Scientific Committee includes UA faculty with a range of expertise in biological diversity from molecules to ecosystems; they come from ten departments, three colleges, and two research divisions of the UA. Committee members provide input on the scientific content of materials and lessons and assist fellow-teacher partners designing specific classroom activities. In addition, two members serve on the BioME Advisory Board.
