During our special volunteer-powered digitization event, a team from CHASE stepped out of the office and into the archives—working side by side with our collection managers to bring history into the digital age. #CitizenScientistMonth #wedigbio #biodiversity #communityscience #scistarter
Students stepped behind the scenes at the museum-not just to observe, but to contribute. From helping process collections to supporting real scientific work, this shows that science is something we can all be part of. #CitizenScienceMonth #scistarter #ScienceForEveryone #EveryoneCanDoScience

WeDigBio @wedigbio.bsky.social starts tomorrow!
WeDigBio is a 4-day event that aims to mobilize digital data about biodiversity specimens.
We will be hosting lots of exciting expeditions featuring plants, mammals, and even mites. Complete 10 transcriptions to earn your WeDigBio 2026 badge!
Governments & organizations rely on biodiversity data to make decisions about land use, agriculture, & environmental protection. Digitized data ensures those decisions are based on solid evidence. #communityscience #communityscientist #naturalhistory #scienceforall #scistarter #scienceforeveryone
✨ We are so close to 3 million registered volunteers on Zooniverse! Here is a special Citizen Science Month message from Zooniverse Co-Director and Digital Humanities lead Dr Samantha Blickhan.

It's finally hear, it's Citizen Science Month!!! This April, join a global movement and help create 2.5 Million Acts of Science with @scistarter.bsky.social!
#SciStarter #America250 #Semiquincentennial #nisenet #nisenetwork #museums #planetarium #InformalScience #sciencecenters #childrensmuseum
Faster scientific discovery-With large datasets available digitally, researchers can use tools like data modeling to discover new patterns, relationships, & even identify new species more efficiently. #communityscience #scistarter #OpenScienceForAll #EveryoneCanDoScience #globaltcn #zooniverse
All April, SciStarter invites you to contribute to real research in minutes. This year, go deeper. Through a partnership with New Scientist, eligible participants may receive a complimentary 12-month digital subscription.
Take part, then explore.

Digitizing biodiversity-the process of converting information about plants, animals, ecosystems, and specimens into accessible digital formats. Join an event at: scistarter.org/citizenscien...
#communityscience #scistarter #ScienceForEveryone #OpenScienceForAll #EveryoneCanDoScience #zooniverse
Digitization allows researchers, educators, and the public worldwide to access collections that were once limited to physical museums or field notes. #communityscience #scistarter #ScienceForEveryone #OpenScienceForAll #EveryoneCanDoScience #globaltcn #zooniverse
It's Citizen Science month!
Citizen science is for everyone – you don’t need a PhD to make a difference, just curiosity and a willingness to get involved!

A circular logo for "Marine Lens Florida Keys" featuring a colorful, stylized illustration of ocean life. The design includes a Mutton Snapper, a Green Moray eel, a spiny lobster, a Queen Conch shell, and an Elkhorn coral, all arranged in a dynamic swirl.
Many important fish species gather in large groups to reproduce at predictable locations and times. This predictability makes them extra vulnerable to fishing pressure. Acting like underwater oases, solution holes provide shelter and food for many marine animals, in an otherwise flat, open seascape. These cameras enable observation of marine species without disturbing them. Especially, rare behaviors, nocturnal or shy animals that divers might miss. Help researchers analyze footage collected by underwater cameras. By identifying species and behaviors, you’ll be contributing to meaningful science! The ocean’s full of secrets – just when you think you’ve seen it all…boom, something new!
✨🐠 Announcing new Zooniverse project - Marine Lens: Florida Keys! The Marine Lens team has captured thousands of underwater videos to protect vulnerable species and ecosystems, and now they need your help to sort through it!

Physical specimens, handwritten notes, and field records can degrade or be lost. Digitization preserves this information permanently and protects it from damage. #wedigbio #biodiversity #communityscience #communityscientist #naturalhistory #science #scienceforall #scistarter #scienceforeveryone
When biodiversity data is digitized, scientists & policymakers can quickly analyze species distributions, population trends & threats. Supporting smarter conservation strategies, especially for endangered species & fragile ecosystems.
#scistarter #OpenScienceForAll #globaltcn #zooniverse
WeDigBio @wedigbio.bsky.social starts is less than a week. The event takes place April 9 – 12, 2026. People from all over the world join together to digitize museum specimen data and to celebrate biodiversity collections. We hope you can join us.

Digital records help monitor changes over time-such as shifts caused by climate change, habitat loss, or invasive species. This allows for predicting future impacts. #wedigbio #biodiversity #communityscience #naturalhistory #science #scienceforall #scistarter #scienceforeveryone #fieldmuseum
Digital platforms allow anyone—from students to citizen scientists—to explore biodiversity, contribute observations, and better understand the natural world. #communityscience #scistarter #ScienceForEveryone #OpenScienceForAll #EveryoneCanDoScience #globaltcn #fieldmuseum #zooniverse
Digitizing biodiversity turns scattered, vulnerable information into a powerful, shared resource that helps us understand & protect life on Earth more effectively. #communityscience #scistarter #ScienceForEveryone #OpenScienceForAll #EveryoneCanDoScience #globaltcn #fieldmuseum #zooniverse
Help biodiversity efforts by mobilizing thousands of natural history records, and make your mark on community-led science. Follow along as we count down #wedigbio #biodiversity #communityscience #communityscientist #naturalhistory #scienceforall #scistarter #scienceforeveryone #scienceisforeveryone
On April 2, help NASA scientists decode the weather on Mars.
