This October JASON Student and Teacher Argonauts will be joining a BioBlitz expedition in the rainforest of Malaysia — and you can follow their research and experiences every day through the JASON website and social media channels!
Dozens of scientists from across the globe will be doing a massive survey on the bugs, plants, animals, and trees to better understand the pristine ecosystem in and around Penang Hill. Their work will help conserve this important resource, and could lead to a UNESCO World Heritage designation.
Join us on this virtual expedition! We will be sharing videos, virtual 360s, pictures, and posts every day, and will be working with the science teams to answer as many of your questions as we can from the rainforest.

JASON’s expedition to the Malaysian rainforest was made possible with generous support from the TREE Foundation,
and could not happen without our wonderful expedition hosts and collaborators The Habitat Penang Hill and The Habitat Foundation.
