2010-11 Funding Priorities

DRI’s 50th anniversary was a banner year. In spite of economic conditions that challenged us, we have not been sidetracked in our mission to promote science, working to solve environmental problems while benefitting Nevada’s financial health. DRI’s brilliant and hard-working faculty, support staff, and students need resources to continue the quality research programs.

Please support DRI’s mission to apply science in the benefit of humankind, our key priorities, and our faculty as they tackle many of the most important environmental research issues facing our planet. Download the entire 2010-11 DRI Priorities PDF here, or visit the DRI Foundation web site.
