Citizen Science

Researchers at Oregon State University are recruiting citizen scientists to join a network enabling air and water exposure monitoring in their communities. This site will allow scientists to develop a profile, perform online training, request a sampling site, and join in on local events. This site will also manage equipment loans, sample submission, and allow you to view your data. For more information, please visit the Citizen Science website. If you are interested becoming a citizen scientist, please sign up for updates and we will send you a newsletter when we open up registration for online training.
