FLORIDA MUSEUM
ANNUAL REPORT
2024-2025

Message From the Director

Dear friends and supporters,

 

I’m pleased to welcome you to our fiscal year 2024–2025 annual report. This past year has been one of tremendous change and growth for the Florida Museum of Natural History, and I’m excited to share some of the milestones that shaped it.

After nearly three decades of visionary leadership that propelled the institution to incredible heights, Douglas S. Jones stepped back to his faculty role in invertebrate paleontology. His impact on the Museum has been extraordinary, and we are deeply grateful for his dedication.

 

As a result, I’m thrilled to be back at the Florida Museum as the interim director and honored to lead it during this period of transition. Some of you may remember me as the curator of mammals and a former department chair. For the past five years, I have served in the University of Florida’s Office of the Provost helping guide UF’s artificial intelligence initiatives.

This year also marked the retirements of two longtime curators, Larry Page, curator of ichthyology, and Kitty Emery, curator of environmental archaeology. Their many years of contributions are sincerely appreciated, and we wish them both the very best.

 

In March, we closed Powell Hall to begin a long-awaited renovation with Ennead Architects and Scorpio Construction. The project includes a new façade, gift shop and exhibit space, with reopening anticipated for late 2026. Nearby, construction continues on the Thompson Earth Systems Institute’s building, which translates UF’s Earth systems research into resources for teachers and students statewide.

 

Even with exhibits closed, our teams have been active across the community through hundreds of outreach events and pop-ups. Faculty, staff and student discoveries continue to earn national and international attention, while the Natural History Department secured more than $2 million in new external funding for research and education.

 

There’s much more to discover in this report, and I encourage you to take a look and join us in celebrating our achievements over the last year. Thank you for your continued support.

Interim Director

Research & Collections

Department of Natural History Highlights

 

The Department of Natural History had another exceptional year of scholarship and training. Faculty, staff and student research and discoveries garnered national and international media attention. The department secured over $2.1 million in new external funding to support its research and educational efforts. Two new faculty curators joined the team: Advait Jukar, assistant curator of vertebrate paleontology, and Vaughn Shirey, assistant curator of Lepidoptera for the McGuire Center. Museum Director Emeritus Douglas Jones also returned to the faculty and resumed his research activities. The department strengthened its commitment to undergraduate engagement by appointing Mariela Pajuelo as its first undergraduate coordinator, who led events and workshops tailored to UF students. Faculty and staff mentored more than 100 graduate students and over 300 undergraduates from nine UF colleges through hands-on research and curation experiences. Additionally, they taught more than 600 students, primarily from the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences and Agricultural and Life Sciences. The departmental internship program also received new private funding, enabling support for 20 undergraduates engaged in behind-the-scenes research.

Fossils Take Flight

In partnership with UF Innovate, Florida Museum fossils took flight aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket. Back on Earth, Museum scientists revealed giant croc-like sebecids survived in the Caribbean about 5 million years after they went extinct elsewhere and that tegus, today an invasive species in Florida, had ancient native relatives here millions of years ago. Other collections-based projects expanded frontiers, from identifying disco gene pathways in moths that may regulate circadian rhythms, to analyzing rare elephant fossils in India that provide the earliest evidence of butchery on the subcontinent, to a federally-funded initiative that described more than 100 new species of ribbon worms.

Community-Powered Science

Museum researchers partner with local people and organizations, bringing science into everyday Florida landscapes. Paleontologists unearthed a “graveyard” sinkhole in the Big Bend region of Florida with half-million-year-old sloth, horse and giant armadillo fossils, discoveries made possible through collaboration with local fossil collectors. They are also guiding regional utility companies to manage the plants on their lands to double as pollinator habitat, demonstrating how conservation can align with industry needs. And at the UF Bird Observatory, based at Prairie Creek Conservation Cemetery, new long-term monitoring of migratory species is connecting bird science with community volunteers.

Museum Scholars Shine

The Museum continued its tradition of excellence with faculty and staff earning university and national recognition. Faculty highlights include Mariela Pajuelo named UF Engagement Advisor of the Year, Charles Cobb selected as a 2025 UF Research Foundation Professor and Megan Ennes honored as an Early-Career Research Fellow in Education Research by the National Academies Gulf Research Program. Robert Guralnick and several current and former graduate students and postdoctoral researchers secured first place and a $5 million prize in the XPRIZE, an international biodiversity competition. And in the crowning achievement of a career, Florida pottery expert Ann Cordell was recognized with a lifetime achievement award.

Repatriation Milestones Mark a Transformative Year

The Museum has made important strides with its obligations under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). Working across divisions, the NAGPRA coordinator submitted notices for cultural objects for non-anthropological collections, as well as summaries within the archaeological divisions. The Museum also submitted and published more than 30 notices to the federal government, which makes the process possible to repatriate over 700 ancestors and 13,000 funerary objects to Tribal Nations in the U.S. This work was facilitated through federal awards to the Museum and led by a dedicated coordinator and other Museum staff and faculty. In an effort to introduce UF students to the fundamentals and best practices in archaeology, curator Charlie Cobb created a new field course that excavated a Spanish mission site.

Hands-On Experience Empowers Scientists

By working behind-the-scenes with Museum faculty and staff, UF students are gaining experience with scientific collections, communicating science and finding future careers. These students and postdocs are widely recognized for their accomplishments, including three postdocs who received University of Florida awards: Makenzie Mabry was named UF Postdoc of the Year, Ivone de Bem Oliveria received a Distinguished Postdoc Mentor Award and Bert Foquet was awarded a travel grant. Graduate students were celebrated through the Museum’s annual Austin (Maria Vallejo-Pareja), Biodiversity (Sarah Steele Cabrera) and Bullen awards (Domenique Sorresso).

Museum Experiences Shape Future Scientists

In December, the Museum completed the move of its vast “wet” collections, specimens preserved in alcohol, including fishes, amphibians, reptiles and invertebrates, into the state-of-the-art Special Collections Building. Staff relocated approximately 4 million specimens stored in about 60,000 gallons of preservative, safeguarding one of the nation’s largest ichthyology and invertebrate zoology collections and a herpetology collection ranked among the top 10 nationally. With the move complete, Dickinson Hall opened its doors to the public for the first time in more than two decades, offering a prized glimpse into its research. Museum faculty and staff welcomed middle school students from UF P.K. Yonge Developmental Research School behind the scenes to explore fossils, bird skins and invertebrates, meet researchers, and experience cutting-edge labs for CT scanning and 3D modeling.

UF Students Aid in Cultural Conservation

This year, the RRC partnered with the UF Bob Graham Center for Public Service to host a group of undergraduates affiliated with the UF Gulf Scholars Program and GatorCorps on Pine Island. The students participated in Calusa archaeological heritage preservation related efforts tied to recovery from hurricanes Helene and Milton. This service opportunity allowed the center to share Pineland and Calusa archaeology with the group, including students with interests in anthropology, journalism, engineering and architecture. All enjoyed a long weekend of hard work as well as inspiring discussions about the importance of Museums in leading cultural heritage and natural resource conservation in Florida.

UF Students Dive into Springs Protection

TESI was awarded a $10,000 grant from the Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida to educate the UF community about Florida’s springs and inform them of ways they can act to protect spring resources. Many of the 93,000 students, faculty and staff learn about, visit and enjoy recreation in the springs for the first time while at UF. Through TESI’s Swamp for the Springs project, members of the UF community were able to take part in a campus-wide survey, learn more about the springs through six outreach events and participate in a springs clean-up effort. TESI was also able to host two UF Gulf Scholars interns to hone their science communication skills while working on the project.

Exhibits & Public Programs

This past year has been both exciting and uniquely transitional. Starting in July, Dr. Jaret Daniels took over as Interim Director of Exhibits and Public Programs (EPP) following the retirement of Darcie MacMahon. Jaret is also a curator in the Museum’s McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity and returns to this leadership role for a second time, having initially served a three-year term which began in 2012.

 

Following the very successful 101-day summer run of the museum-created exhibition Science Up Close: Incredible Insects, much attention pivoted to planning for our large expansion project. This will create new additions to the front and rear of Powell Hall to accommodate a new state-of-the-art exhibition and learning spaces; an updated modern facade; and a larger collectors shop along with additional offices and educational spaces for the Thompson Earth Systems Institute and education department. The scope of the demolition and construction, in combination with the project schedule, required the Museum to close for an extended period of time. Efforts now focus on innovative ways to connect with the community, ensuring that the Museum continues to deliver the highest quality educational programming outside the physical walls of the facility. Museum staff additionally took this opportunity to begin several renovation efforts and help refresh several of the public spaces inside the Museum to ultimately enhance the visitor experience upon reopening.

 

The year came to a close with Public Programs Coordinator, Catherine W. Carey, retiring after almost 14 years of service to the Florida Museum. While her work with the Education team started in 2012, her initial involvement with the Museum began with an undergraduate internship in 1980. In her role as a museum educator, Catherine inspired thousands of people to care about life on earth. She leaves behind her programmatic legacy “Museums for Me,” a program created for people on the autism spectrum, and their families.

Exhibit Enhancements Underway

Although the larger Museum expansion project has deservingly received the most attention, two large exhibition hall renovations were also initiated. Funded in part with a gift from the 1923 Fund, the Museum fully upgraded its temporary exhibition gallery, adding state-of-the-art theatrical lighting equipment, new flooring and other enhancements to help boost energy efficiency and better accommodate an exciting future slate of changing exhibitions. The South Florida People and Environments exhibit hall also began a partial rejuvenation with matching funding from the Florida Division of Historical Resources’ Cultural Resource Protection grant. Both projects will appreciably enhance the overall visitor experience and meaningful engagement.

Jim Toomey

Growing up on Florida’s Sanibel Island awakened a sense of wonder and discovery in the Toomey boys. Their parents, Barbara and Reed Toomey, built their home there and the boys’ thirst for adventure flourished as they hunted for seashells, insects, bones and rocks. Mike and Jim Toomey’s quest for knowledge and desire to explore the natural world hasn’t waned over the years. These interests brought them to the Florida Museum, and they have supported countless educational outreach programs and exhibits to help inspire that same enthusiasm in others.

Mike Toomey

As close friends of the Museum, the Toomeys seemed a natural fit for the Museum’s next great undertaking, establishing the Douglas S. Jones Endowment. The fund supports fieldwork, research and educational outreach related to paleobotany and vertebrate and invertebrate paleontology, areas of great interest to the Toomey brothers as well as Doug’s areas of expertise.

 

Mike and Jim jumped at the chance to make the inaugural gift to launch an endowment in honor of Doug’s tenure as he stepped down from the director’s position. When asked about the motivation for this gift, Jim stated, “Doug has led the Museum for the past 29 years and this is a fitting tribute to his dedication and passion for its mission. Mike and I are honored to be part of creating this endowment which will support the field of paleontology long into the future.”
