Research partners & facilities
Discover our research partners and state-of-the-art facilities. Collaborative networks and advanced resources driving innovative biodiversity science and global conservation efforts.
The CBA is in a unique location with world-class biological research facilities based in Canberra at the ANU, University of Canberra and CSIRO Black Mountain laboratories, and the other national CSIRO collections outside Canberra.
The Centre for Biodiversity Analysis
The CBA is co-funded by the Australian National University (Research School of Biology, Fenner School of Environment and Society, College of Science & DVCR), CSIRO (National Research Collections Australia and Health & Biosecurity), and the University of Canberra (Centre for Conservation Ecology and Genetics).
Thanks to the strong support and participation from our three partner institutions the CBA has been continuously funded for 12 years (2012-25).
The CBA is administered from the Research School of Biology, ANU (see General contacts).
