About the Business

Tyson Research Center

Tyson Research Center, located at 6750 Tyson Valley Road in Eureka, Missouri, is the environmental field station of Washington University in St. Louis. This institution provides opportunities for environmental research and education for students and faculty from Washington University and beyond. With 2,000 acres of land, Tyson Research Center facilitates multi-scale research and teaching opportunities, allowing for collaboration across disciplines, institutions, and levels of academic training.

One of the center's ambitious projects is to document and preserve a physical representative of every plant species growing across its vast grounds. Research conducted at Tyson has revealed that certain populations of mosquitoes are more heat tolerant, while acoustic recorders have been used to detect bats for the first time in the St. Louis Wildlife Project.

The Tyson observatory offers a unique stargazing experience, and recent research published in Nature Ecology & Evolution has shown the effects of climate, urbanization, and species traits on wildlife in cities. The center also engages in discussions on mosquito-borne diseases on an international level.

Tyson Research Center has a variety of ecosystems that make it unique, and the institution has implemented sustainability initiatives to operate in an environmentally friendly manner. The center's infrastructure supports a range of research and education activities, from lab experiments to large-scale field studies.

Overall, Tyson Research Center provides a unique setting for ecologists to explore big questions with ambitious projects and offers a valuable resource for environmental research and education.
