| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS: ONLY AT THE CALIFORNIA ACADEMY OF SCIENCES CAN YOU TIME-TRAVEL TO THE BIRTH OF THE PLANETS, EXPERIENCE FOUR RAINFORESTS AT ONCE AND LEARN HOW WHAT YOU EAT AFFECTS THE HEALTH OF THE PLANET. THE ACADEMY'S FOCUS IS THE NATURAL WORLD: HOW LIFE WORKS AND HOW SCIENCE WORKS IN UNLOCKING THE MYSTERIES OF THE WORLD AND THE COSMOS. STEINHART AQUARIUM OFFERS VISITORS UNIQUE VIEWS OF UNDERWATER LIFE AND PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO THE CRITICAL ROLE THAT AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS PLAY IN LIFE ON EARTH. THE PHILIPPINE CORAL REEF IS THE DEEPEST EXHIBIT OF LIVE CORALS IN THE WORLD. THE EXHIBIT HOUSES A BROAD RANGE OF AQUATIC LIFE FROM MANGROVE TREES AND DELICATE SOFT AND HARD CORALS, TO SHARKS, RAYS, AND MORE THAN 2,500 COLORFUL REEF FISH REPRESENTING OVER 150 SPECIES. THERE ARE INTERACTIVE DISPLAYS AND TWO IN-TANK DIVER PRESENTATIONS EVERYDAY. ENGINEERFISH, WHICH HIDE AND ARE SELDOM SEEN IN THE WILD, HAVE SAFELY BEEN BREEDING ON EXHIBIT. AQUARIUM BIOLOGISTS PARTICIPATED IN THE 2011 PHILIPPINES BIODIVERSITY EXPEDITION; THEY WERE ALLOWED TO COLLECT OVER 100 FRAGMENTS OF STONY AND SOFT CORALS TO BRING BACK FOR CULTIVATION. SEVERAL WHIP CORALS WERE ADDED TO THE LOWER CENTER SECTION OF THE MAIN WINDOW; THE COLLECTING OF THE SEA WHIPS LED TO THE SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE "ZOOXANTHELLAE IN ELLISELLID GORGONIANS OF THE PHILIPPINES." STEINHART BIOLOGISTS COLLECTED BLACK CORALS, MUSHROOM CORALS (COMPLETE WITH THEIR COMMENSAL SHRIMP), VENOMOUS FIRE URCHINS, AND A HIGHLY VENOMOUS FLOWER URCHIN. THREE CIRRHILABRUS WRASSES WERE ADDED TO THE REEF. THE RAINFORESTS OF THE WORLD EXHIBIT IS CONTAINED WITHIN A GLASS DOME THAT IS 90 FEET IN DIAMETER. THE MULTI-LEVEL EXHIBIT TAKES VISITORS ON A JOURNEY THROUGH FOUR DISTINCT AND DIVERSE RAINFOREST ENVIRONMENTS: THE BORNEO RAINFOREST FLOOR; THE MADAGASCAR RAINFOREST UNDERSTORY; THE COSTA RICA RAINFOREST CANOPY AND THE AMAZONIAN FLOODED FOREST. DURING A SUMMER TRIP TO COSTA RICA, AQUARIUM BIOLOGISTS COLLECTED 70 FROGS, LIZARDS, AND SNAKES. FROM THESE 17 SPECIES, BREEDING GROUPS WILL BE ESTABLISHED TO SUSTAIN THE EXHIBIT. RAISING THE ANIMALS IN A MUSEUM ENVIRONMENT INCREASES PUBLIC AWARENESS ABOUT THREATENED SPECIES. REGULAR OBSERVATION BY THE BIOLOGISTS LEADS TO A BETTER SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE ANIMALS. THE ACADEMY CONTINUES ITS CAPTIVE-BREEDING PROGRAM WHICH INCLUDES MANTELLA FROGS FROM MADAGASCAR, GHOST MANTIDS, ORB WEAVING SPIDERS, AND VARIOUS SPECIES OF TANAGERS PAIRED TO RAISE THEIR CHICKS IN THE EXHIBIT. FLYING GECKOS ALSO HAVE BEEN BREEDING ON EXHIBIT. THE LEAF CUTTER ANTS PROVIDE FUNGUS TO CREATE NATURAL COMPOST AND BIRD-SAFE NUTRIENTS FOR THE PLANTS. ACADEMY BOTANISTS BRING BACK SEEDS TO ADD DIVERSITY TO THE PLANTINGS AND TWO PALM TREES WERE ADDED; THE PEACH PALM HAS BEEN IN FULL FRUIT SEVERAL TIMES, PROVIDING DIETARY ENRICHMENT FOR PACU IN THE FLOODED FOREST AS WELL AS FOR THE TWO BLUE AND GOLD MACAWS THAT WERE ADDED TO THE EXHIBIT. THE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST EXHIBIT CONTAINS A WIDE VARIETY OF NATIVE FISH AND INVERTEBRATES FROM ENVIRONMENTS OF SALT MARSHES TO TURBULENT ROCKY INLETS. THERE WERE TWO COLLECTING TRIPS TO MONTEREY CANYON AND STILLWATER COVE TO COLLECT SEA ANEMONES, SEA URCHINS, AND FISH FOR EXHIBIT. CAPTIVE-BRED EGG CASES OF BIG SKATES WERE DONATED FROM ANOTHER AQUARIUM AND HATCHED IN OUR SAND DOLLAR EXHIBIT. THE SKATES WERE RELOCATED TO OUR SAN FRANCISCO BAY EXHIBIT, WHERE THEY ENTHRALL OUR VISITORS. THE MAIN 100,000-GALLON TANK FEATURES THE HABITAT OF THE GULF OF THE FARALLONES MARINE SANCTUARY. THE ACADEMY HAS A LIVE WEBCAM LINK TO THE FARALLONES: HTTP://WWW.CALACADEMY.ORG/WEBCAMS/FARALLONES THE SWAMP IS HOME TO AN ALBINO AMERICAN ALLIGATOR, AS WELL AS SEVERAL ALLIGATOR SNAPPING TURTLES, SNAKES, FROGS, FISH, INSECTS, AND SALAMANDERS. THE SWAMP CONTAINS BOTH NATIVE NORTH AMERICAN FISH AND INVASIVE SPECIES TO EDUCATE OUR VISITORS ABOUT HOW THESE INTRODUCED SPECIES ARE OFTEN HIGHLY DETRIMENTAL TO NATIVE HABITATS. THE WATER PLANET EXHIBIT HOUSES MORE THAN 100 TANKS, FROM 5 TO 5,000 GALLONS IN SIZE, EXPLORING WHAT IT TAKES TO SURVIVE UNDERWATER. THE AREA WAS DESIGNED TO BE FLEXIBLE, WITH EXHIBITS CHANGING FREQUENTLY TO DISPLAY SPECIES RARELY SEEN BEFORE. POTBELLY SEAHORSES HAVE BEEN BREEDING ON EXHIBIT. IN THE PHILIPPINES, STEINHART BIOLOGISTS COLLECTED AND SUCCESSFULLY BRED A PAIR OF SPECTACULAR AND DELICATE GHOST PIPEFISH. A SECTION OF THESE TANKS, CALLED STAFF PICKS, DISPLAYS ANIMALS CHOSEN BY THE AQUARIUM STAFF BASED UPON THEIR OWN INTERESTS. ALSO IN THE PHILIPPINES, STAFF COLLECTED A UNIQUE DIURNAL COCONUT OCTOPUS - ANOTHER FIRST FOR A US PUBLIC AQUARIUM. THE EXHIBIT ALSO FEATURES A VIDEO ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER ON THE PLANET, ITS LINK TO THE ORIGINS OF LIFE ON EARTH, AND THE NEED TO CONSERVE THIS PRECIOUS RESOURCE. THERE WERE: - 2,842 SPECIMENS (125 SPECIES) ADDED TO STEINHART AQUARIUM - 2,594 SPECIMENS (36 SPECIES) ADDED IN OUR CAPTIVE BREEDING PROGRAM - 14 PRESENTATIONS BY AQUARIUM STAFF - 10 COLLECTING TRIPS - 5 ARTICLES, PAPERS, OR BOOKS PUBLISHED - MORE THAN 50 NEW PAGES OF IMAGES AND VIDEOS DEVOTED TO BEHIND-THE-SCENES WORK AT STEINHART AQUARIUM ADDED TO THE "AQUARIUM" SECTION OF OUR MAIN WEBSITE THE MORRISON PLANETARIUM IS THE LARGEST ALL-DIGITAL DOME IN THE WORLD WITH A 75-FOOT DIAMETER SCREEN TILTED AT A 30-DEGREE ANGLE. THE PLANETARIUM RELIES ON SCIENTIFIC DATA TO DEPICT CURRENT DISCOVERIES WITH UNPRECEDENTED ACCURACY. IT ALSO HAS THE FLEXIBILITY TO PRESENT A WIDE VARIETY OF PROGRAMMING FOR 297 VISITORS AT A TIME. THERE ARE SEVERAL LIVE TOURS OF THE UNIVERSE, MEMBER CONSTELLATION SHOWS, NIGHTLIFE PROGRAMMING, AND SCHOOL SHOWS FOR 5TH-8TH GRADE CLASSES. THE 30-MINUTE SHOW, JOURNEY TO THE STARS, CONTINUED THROUGH OCTOBER. OUR NEW SHOW, LIFE: A COSMIC STORY, DEBUTED IN NOVEMBER. THE SHOW WAS WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY A TEAM OF FILMMAKERS - AND DOZENS OF CONSULTING SCIENTISTS - WHO WORK IN THE VISUALIZATION STUDIO OF THE ACADEMY. THE NEW FILM SPANS OVER 13 BILLION YEARS IN 30 MINUTES, TAKING THE VIEWER ON A HEADY JOURNEY FROM THE BIG BANG AND DARK MATTER TO PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND THE PRODUCTION OF OXYGEN. JODIE FOSTER, WHO NARRATES THE FILM, OPENS WITH: "LIFE SURROUNDS US. HERE, IN THIS REDWOOD GROVE, WE FIND AN ASTONISHING VARIETY OF SPECIES....AND WE ARE A PART OF IT. YOU AND I AND THESE TREES - INDEED, ALL LIVING THINGS - ARE RELATED." THE CAMERA MOVES UP ONE OF THE TREES IN MUIR WOODS, PAST A ZIGZAGGING ANT, AND INTO A SINGLE REDWOOD LEAF, GETTING MORE MICROSCOPIC AS IT MOVES INTO A REDWOOD CELL. FOSTER SAYS, "INSIDE THIS TINY FACTORY, PHOTOSYNTHESIS TRANSFORMS SUNLIGHT INTO CHEMICAL ENERGY THAT ALLOWS THE TREE TO THRIVE AND GROW. THE CELLS IN OUR BODIES USE THE SAME MOLECULES TO CARRY ENERGY." THE FILM COVERS DARK MATTER, THE FIRST GENERATION OF STARS, THE EXPLOSION OF STARS, AND THE CREATION OF THE SUN, EARTH, AND SIBLING PLANETS. IT MOVES TO PRIMORDIAL OCEANS AND CONTINENTS TAKING SHAPE, TO EARLY NUCLEOTIDES AND PRIMITIVE ALGAE GIVING RISE TO PLANTS. BY THE FILM'S END, AUDIENCES GLIMPSE THE GREAT DIVERSITY OF LIVING SPECIES TODAY. THE PLANETARIUM SHOW IS A VISUALLY SPECTACULAR DEMONSTRATION OF THE WAY COMPUTER POWER IS TRANSFORMING THE SCIENCES, GIVING SCIENTISTS TOOLS AS IMPORTANT TO CURRENT RESEARCH AS THE MICROSCOPE AND TELESCOPE WERE TO EARLIER SCIENTISTS. NOW, TO AN EVER GREATER EXTENT, RESEARCHERS WORK WITH IMMENSE COLLECTIONS OF DIGITAL DATA, AND THE MASTERY OF SUCH MOUNTAINS OF INFORMATION DEPENDS ON COMPUTING POWER. THERE WERE EIGHT LECTURES IN THE ACADEMY'S BENJAMIN DEAN SERIES. |

| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B | RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS: SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1853, THE CALIFORNIA ACADEMY OF SCIENCES HAS BEEN MOTIVATED BY THE DESIRE TO UNDERSTAND NATURE, ITS PROCESSES, AND THE IMPACT OF HUMANS ON NATURAL SYSTEMS. FOR MORE THAN 150 YEARS, THE ACADEMY HAS TRAVELLED THE GLOBE, COLLECTED ALL MANNER OF ROCKS AND ORGANISMS, DOCUMENTED EARTH'S THREATENED BIODIVERSITY, SHARED THEIR DISCOVERIES AND PROVIDED DATA TO GUIDE CONSERVATION DECISIONS THAT WILL SHAPE OUR LIVES AND THE FUTURE OF OUR PLANET AS WE ADDRESS A CHANGING CLIMATE AND OTHER ECOLOGICAL CHALLENGES. THE AFAR REGION OF ETHIOPIA IS THE SITE FOR FIELD WORK BY AN INTERNATIONAL TEAM OF SCIENTISTS LED BY ACADEMY PALEOANTHROPOLOGIST ZERAY ALEMSEGED. THE SITE BOASTS THICK SEDIMENTARY DEPOSITS THAT SPAN THE PERFECT TIMEFRAME FOR FINDING HUMAN ANCESTORS: ABOUT 4 MILLION TO 100,000 YEARS AGO. IN AUGUST, NATURE PUBLISHED THE TEAM'S FINDING OF EVIDENCE THAT HUMAN ANCESTORS WERE USING STONE TOOLS AND CONSUMING MEAT FROM LARGE MAMMALS NEARLY A MILLION YEARS EARLIER THAN PREVIOUSLY DOCUMENTED. ALEMSEGED'S DIKIKA RESEARCH PROJECT TEAM FOUND FOSSILIZED BONES BEARING UNAMBIGUOUS EVIDENCE OF STONE TOOL USE - CUT MARKS INFLICTED WHILE CARVING MEAT OFF THE BONE AND PERCUSSION MARKS CREATED WHILE BREAKING THE BONES OPEN TO EXTRACT MARROW. THE BONES DATE TO ROUGHLY 3.4 MILLION YEARS AGO AND PROVIDE THE FIRST EVIDENCE THAT LUCY'S SPECIES, AUSTRALOPITHECUS AFARENSIS, USED STONE TOOLS AND CONSUMED MEAT. THE 2011 PHILIPPINE BIODIVERSITY EXPEDITION IS THE LARGEST EXPEDITION UNDERTAKEN BY THE ACADEMY. THE PHILIPPINES IS ONE OF THE HOTSPOTS FOR DIVERSE AND THREATENED LIFE ON EARTH. THIS EXPEDITION REPRESENTS THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE BIODIVERSITY SURVEY OF TERRESTRIAL, FRESHWATER, AND MARINE HABITATS. IT SPANNED APRIL 26TH TO JUNE 6TH. LED BY THE ACADEMY'S DEAN OF SCIENCE TERRY GOSLINER, THE EXPEDITION INCLUDED 94 FILIPINO AND INTERNATIONAL SCIENTISTS, STUDENTS, EDUCATORS, AND MEDIA. THE TERRESTRIAL TEAM EXPLORED SEVERAL LOCALITIES IN SOUTHERN LUZON ISLAND INCLUDING MT. MAKILING, MT. MALARAYAT, MT. BANAHAW, MT. ISAROG, THE UNIVERSITY OF PHILIPPINES LAND GRANT LANDS, AND ANGAT DAM. THE SHALLOW WATER TEAM EXPLORED THE WATERS AROUND THE MUNICIPALITIES OF MABINI AND TINGLOY IN BATANGAS PROVINCE. THE DEEP-SEA COMPONENT USED THE A RESEARCH VESSEL TO CONDUCT OTTER TRAWLS, BEAM TRAWLS, AND FISH TRAPS IN THE WATERS OF THE VERDE ISLAND PASSAGE FROM BATANGAS BAY, BALAYAN BAY AND THE SOUTH CHINA SEA WEST OF LUBANG ISLAND. DEEP-WATER SAMPLING OCCURRED FROM 70-2300 METERS IN DEPTH. DURING THEIR 42-DAY EXPEDITION TO SURVEY LUZON ISLAND - THE LARGEST ISLAND IN THE PHILIPPINE ARCHIPELAGO - AND ITS SURROUNDING WATERS, THE INTERNATIONAL TEAM OF SCIENTISTS CREATED SPECIES LISTS AND DISTRIBUTION MAPS FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF SPECIES, INCLUDING PLANTS, INSECTS, REPTILES, AMPHIBIANS, FISH, CORALS, BARNACLES, SEA URCHINS, AND MANY OTHER MARINE INVERTEBRATES. ALONG THE WAY, THEY ENCOUNTERED MORE THAN 300 SPECIES THAT APPEARED TO BE NEW TO SCIENCE, INCLUDING NOTABLE FINDS SUCH AS A CICADA THAT MAKES A DISTINCTIVE "LAUGHING" CALL, A DEEP-SEA SWELL SHARK THAT INFLATES ITS STOMACH WITH WATER TO BULK UP AND SCARE OFF OTHER PREDATORS, A SEA URCHIN WITH STINGING SPINES THAT ARE MADE FROM LIMESTONE BUT ARE FLEXIBLE LIKE HUMAN HAIRS, AND A WORM-LIKE PIPEFISH THAT HIDES AMONG COLONIES OF SOFT CORAL. MUCH OF THE PHILIPPINES IS STILL MYSTERIOUS, AND SCIENTISTS MUST LEARN IN DETAIL WHAT IS THERE IN ORDER TO DETERMINE HOW THE ENVIRONMENTS OF THE ISLAND'S SPECIES CAN BE BEST PROTECTED BY PHILIPPINE CONSERVATION AGENCIES. THE EXPEDITION TOOK ABOUT A YEAR TO PLAN, AND THE RESULTS WILL TAKE EVEN MORE TIME TO BE DISSEMINATED. AN ENORMOUS LEVEL OF EDUCATION AND OUTREACH WAS CONDUCTED ON LOCATION AND BACK AT THE ACADEMY. THERE WERE MANY BLOGS POSTED FROM THE FIELD AND LIVE WEBCASTS AT THE SCIENCE IN ACTION EXHIBIT BACK AT THE ACADEMY. THE MADAGASCAR BIODIVERSITY CENTER GOT A NEW SOLAR ELECTRIC SYSTEM IN APRIL, JUST IN TIME FOR EARTH DAY. THE LONG-TERM GOAL IS TO CHALLENGE THE GREEN ENERGY THINKERS FROM THE BAY AREA TO FIND SOLUTIONS TO THE PROBLEMS OF ENERGY USE IMPACTING DEFORESTATION IN MADAGASCAR. THE ISLAND IS HOME TO AN ASTONISHINGLY UNIQUE ARRAY OF PLANTS AND ANIMALS; THIS PRECIOUS DIVERSITY IS THREATENED BY SEVERE HABITAT LOSS. ACADEMY ENTOMOLOGIST BRIAN FISHER AND HIS TEAM ARE IN A RACE AGAINST TIME TO STUDY AND PROTECT THIS BIOLOGICAL HOTSPOT. OVER 2,000 MADAGASCAR ANT IMAGES HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE WWW.ANTWEB.ORG SITE. THE CENTER ALSO HAS A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON EDUCATING STUDENTS FROM MADAGASCAR IN THE FIELDS OF SYSTEMATICS, ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION - EMPOWERING LOCAL STUDENTS TO PROTECT THEIR COUNTRY'S RICH BIOLOGICAL HERITAGE. THE ACADEMY'S CENTER FOR COMPARATIVE GENOMICS, HEADED BY BRIAN SIMISON, IS BRINGING NEW TECHNOLOGIES INTO THE HANDS OF ACADEMY RESEARCHERS. ONE OF THE MOST USEFUL FORMS OF GENOMIC DATA IS AN "EXOME." THE EXOME IS THE COMPLETE COLLECTION OF AN ORGANISM'S GENES, WHICH ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ALL ITS PROTEINS. BOTH GENE DATA AND GENOMIC DATA ARE USEFUL FOR BUILDING EVOLUTIONARY TREES, WHICH HELP SCIENTISTS IDENTIFY NEW SPECIES AND CRYPTIC SPECIES, DOCUMENT BIODIVERSITY, AND INVESTIGATE A HOST OF OTHER RESEARCH OBJECTIVES. ACADEMY ORNITHOLOGIST JACK DUMBACHER DEMONSTRATED THE POTENTIAL OF DNA TO ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT SPECIES THAT NO LONGER POPULATE OUR PLANET. THE PASSENGER PIGEON HAS BEEN EXTINCT FOR ALMOST 100 YEARS, BUT WITH THE HELP OF MUSEUM SPECIMENS AND DNA ANALYSIS, WE CAN STILL LEARN NEW INFORMATION ABOUT THE BIRD'S EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY AND ITS PLACE ON THE TREE OF LIFE. THE SUMMER SYSTEMATICS INSTITUTE MARKED ITS FIFTEENTH YEAR AS AN ANNUAL SUMMER PROGRAM. LED BY RICH MOOI, THE STUDENTS ATTEND LECTURES BY ACADEMY CURATORS WHILE WORKING ON COLLECTIONS-BASED RESEARCH PROJECTS RELATING TO THE DISCIPLINE OF THEIR SELECTED ADVISOR. THERE IS ALSO A BIOLOGICAL ILLUSTRATION INTERN WITH THE GROUP. THE 8-WEEK PROGRAM CULMINATES WITH PRESENTATIONS FROM THE STUDENTS ABOUT THEIR RESEARCH FINDINGS. THERE WERE 12 STUDENTS PARTICIPATING. THE DIGITIZATION OF THE ACADEMY'S BOTANY TYPE SPECIMENS (THE ORIGINAL "NAME BEARERS" OF NEW KINDS OF PLANTS) HAS BEEN SPEARHEADED BY CURATOR FRANK ALMEDA. ONCE THESE TYPE SPECIMENS ARE DIGITIZED, THEY ARE SUBMITTED TO JSTOR FOR QUALITY CONTROL BEFORE THEY BECOME PART OF JSTOR'S ONLINE SYSTEM OF ARCHIVED ACADEMIC JOURNALS AND PLANT TYPE SPECIMENS. THIS RESOURCE OFFERS GLOBAL ACCESS WITH ALL-TEXT SEARCH ABILITY. THESE RESOURCES WILL BE CRITICAL TOOLS FOR RESEARCHERS TRYING TO ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DIVERSITY AND ORIGINS OF OUR PLANET'S LIFE FORMS. THEY ALSO WILL PROVIDE THE RAW BASELINE DATA FOR STUDYING THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON THE EARTH'S LIFE FORMS. THE ACADEMY HAS PARTNERED WITH THE SMITHSONIAN, HARVARD, AND OTHER MUSEUMS TO DEVELOP A SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATING BIOLOGICAL RESEARCHERS' FIELD AND SPECIMEN NOTES WITH MUSEUM SPECIMENS AND RELATED ELECTRONIC LITERATURE. THIS ENHANCED AND INTEGRATED ACCESS TO BIOLOGICAL DATA WILL SERVE A WIDE VARIETY OF USERS. THE ACADEMY MANAGED 26 FEDERAL GRANTS FROM THE NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION, NASA, NOAA, AND OTHER GRANTORS. THERE WERE 21 EXPEDITIONS IN 14 COUNTRIES, INCLUDING ETHIOPIA, GERMANY, PHILIPPINES, TAIWAN, COLUMBIA, MADAGASCAR, MEXICO, BORNEO, CHINA, PORTUGAL, SOUTH AFRICA, AUSTRALIA, GULF OF GUINEA, AND SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE. THERE WERE 6 FIELDTRIPS IN OREGON AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. OVER 95,900 SPECIMENS WERE COLLECTED FOR THE COLLECTIONS. OVER 20,000 SPECIMENS WERE DONATED. THERE WERE 37,735 LOANS OF SPECIMENS, IMAGES AND BOOKS. 1,191 VISITING RESEARCHERS AND STUDENTS ACCESSED THE ACADEMY COLLECTIONS AND LIBRARY. FOUR SCIENTISTS: TERRY GOSLINER, RICH MOOI, JACK DUMBACHER AND BRIAN FISHER, PARTICIPATED IN THE SCIENTISTS AT WORK BLOG ON THE NEW YORK TIMES WEBSITE. THE LIBRARY ADDED 692 ITEMS TO THE ONLINE CATALOG AND 244 MONOGRAPH TITLES TO THE CATALOG. |

THE PROGRAM PROVIDES ACCESS TO SCIENCE EDUCATION, CAREER AND COLLEGE PREPARATION, AND TEACHING AND RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES. INTERNS TRAINED WITH ACADEMY SCIENTISTS AND STAFF AND CONDUCTED FIELD RESEARCH. TO SHOWCASE THEIR RESEARCH, THEY CREATED THEIR OWN DEMONSTRATION STATIONS ON THE PUBLIC FLOOR. IN DECEMBER, 4 INTERNS PRESENTED THE RESULTS OF THEIR RESEARCH AT THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN GEOPHYSICAL UNION. 42 INTERNS WORKED 14,151 HOURS AND INTERACTED WITH 221,000 VISITORS AND PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS. TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS OFFER AN EXTENSIVE RANGE OF SERVICES AND RESOURCES. THE TEACHER'S WEBSITE GIVES EASY ACCESS TO A DATABASE OF ACADEMY-DESIGNED ACTIVITIES, LESSON PLANS, AND TIPS FOR PLANNING FIELD TRIPS. TEACHERS CAN BORROW ACADEMY CLASSROOM KITS - PORTABLE CONTAINERS PACKED WITH ACTIVITIES, GAMES, SPECIMENS, BOOKS, AND DVDS. 57 WORKSHOPS RESULTED IN OVER 2,600 HOURS OF DIRECT CONTACT WITH TEACHERS. 2 BIOFORUM SYMPOSIA WERE HELD TO ENGAGE MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS WITH TOPICS FROM HUMAN EVOLUTION TO THE RICH BIODIVERSITY OF THE CALIFORNIA COAST ECOSYSTEM. CLASSROOM KITS REACHED 180 TEACHERS AND THEIR 6,500 STUDENTS. 45,000 UNIQUE USERS VISITED THE TEACHER'S WEBPAGE ON THE ACADEMY WEBSITE. TEACHER INSTITUTE ON SCIENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY (TISS) CAME INTO FULL STRENGTH IN ITS SECOND YEAR, WELCOMING AN ADDITIONAL GROUP OF 30 3RD-5TH GRADE BAY AREA TEACHERS. EVEN AFTER THEIR INTENSIVE 2-WEEK SUMMER SESSIONS, THE TISS STAFF CONTINUE TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR EACH GROUP DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR. THE NATURALIST CENTER CONTINUED TO SERVE AS A PORTAL FOR VISITORS WANTING TO EXPLORE THE ACADEMY'S LIBRARY AND RESEARCH COLLECTIONS AND GAIN A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATURAL WORLD. IT IS A RESOURCE FOR INFORMATION ABOUT BIODIVERSITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT, WITH SPECIMENS, BOOKS, VIDEOS, HANDS-ON ACTIVITIES, AND TRAINED ACADEMY EXPERTS. THE NATURALIST CENTER ALSO FOSTERED ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP BY OFFERING GIRL SCOUTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EARN "ECO-WISE" MERIT BADGES AT THE ACADEMY. 193,755 PEOPLE, INCLUDING MEMBERS, VISITORS, AND CALIFORNIA TEACHERS VISITED. 3,590 PARTICIPATED IN NATURALIST CENTER PROGRAMS. 14,399 ITEMS WERE USED FOR IN-HOUSE RESEARCH. 5,926 ITEMS WERE CIRCULATED. 6,692 QUESTIONS WERE ANSWERED. EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION LAUNCHED ITS LITTLE LEARNERS LAB FOR CHILDREN AGES 3-5, ALLOWING THEM TO CONDUCT SIMPLE EXPERIMENTS AS AN INTRODUCTION TO BASIC SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES. EVERY SUNDAY, THERE IS A FAMILY NATURE CRAFTS PRESENTATION FOR CHILDREN AGES 4-8. MORE THAN 106,000 CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF FIVE AND THEIR CAREGIVERS VISITED. MORE THAN 3,400 CHILDREN MADE CRAFTS. LECTURES AND SPECIAL PROGRAMS CONTINUED TO ENGAGE, INSPIRE, AND EMPOWER THE PUBLIC WITH THOUGHT-PROVOKING DISCUSSIONS ON TOPICS SUCH AS ASTRONOMY, EVOLUTION, ECOLOGY, SUSTAINABILITY, NATURAL HISTORY, AND BIODIVERSITY. REBROADCAST ON NPR, THE HERBST LECTURE SERIES ALSO REACHED SCIENCE ENTHUSIASTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN ADDITION, THIS YEAR MARKED THE DEBUT OF THE ACADEMY'S CONSERVATION PHOTOGRAPHY PROGRAM WITH LECTURES BY NOTABLE PHOTOGRAPHERS AND WORKSHOPS DETAILING APPROACHES TO CONSERVATION PHOTOGRAPHY. MORE THAN 6,500 PEOPLE ATTENDED 24 LECTURES AT THE ACADEMY AND THE HERBST THEATRE.
