Scientific Sections

Through field studies and collection-based scientific research, the scientists and researchers of Carnegie Museum of Natural History generate new knowledge and promote stewardship of Earth and its natural resources. Public exhibitions, programs, and educational partnerships allow us to share the results of our scientific research in order to enhance scientific literacy by illuminating the processes of evolution and adaptation that have shaped the diversity of our world and its inhabitants.
