About the MRI Expert Database

The MRI Expert Database has served as a useful tool for connection and collaboration for the mountain research community for many years. It contains the profiles of over 10,000 people involved in mountain research, management, and working in governmental and non-governmental institutions, and the private sector. 

The brand new MRI Expert Database will continue to build on the strong foundations that were already in place, while also offering updated features and a more user-friendly experience. We look forward to sharing it with you in early 2021, and hope that you will find its improvements useful as you continue to make connections for our changing mountains.
