SYNOPSIS
The Systematic Biology and Biodiversity Inventories Cluster supports the general science of systematics, whose three main missions are: to discover, describe, and inventory global species diversity; to analyze and synthesize the information derived from this global discovery effort into predictive classification systems that reflect the history of life; and to organize the information derived from this global program in efficiently retrievable forms that best meet the needs of science and society. The Cluster manages review panels each fall and spring, as well as special competitions for Revisionary Systematics (REVSYS) and for Partnerships for Enhancing Expertise in Taxonomy (PEET).
