Phil Levin is currently on loan to the White Office of Science and Technology Policy and US Office of Global Change Research where he is directing the first-ever National Nature Assessment.  He is not taking new graduate students at this time.

Welcome to Phil Levin’s  University of Washington Conservation Science Lab!  We seek to bring  cutting-edge natural and social science to bear on critical conservation problems. Our mission is to provide the science needed to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends.  Our vision is of thriving nature and thriving human communities – a shared future that enables us to prosper at the same time that we can care for the lands and waters that sustain us.

We acknowledge that we are on Coast Salish territory, the traditional homelands of the Duwamish, Suquamish, Tulalip, Muckleshoot nations and other Natives peoples, whose ancestors resided here since time immemorial.
