ISIS has been fortunate to work with members of the Kaibab Band of Paiutes in Northern Arizona including Danny Bulletts, Chief of Wildlife and Fisheries.  Working for the tribe, members of ISIS have had the opportunity to do undergraduate research projects in wildlife science, soils science, health issues from uranium and nuclear testing, hydrologic conservation, medicinal plants, fire ecology, re-vegetation and much more!  Below are just a few examples of the great work that is currently being done.

The funding for ISIS has expired.  We are currently seeking funds from a variety of sources, and are open to suggestions.  Please see the Contact ISIS tab if you would like to contribute or suggest arenas for funding.
