Additional Description: The University of Michigan's Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology oversees the Edwin S. George Reserve's 1,300 acres.

Scientists, students and professors use the reserve's fields, woods and 37 natural and experimental ponds to study biological, ecological and evolutionary topics such as tracking white-tail deer herds and monitoring amphibian communities. Researchers use on-site laboratories and seminar facilities to conduct and share the results of their work, and have produced over 475 academic papers.

In 2014, a 57-acre research plot within the reserve was added to the Smithsonian Institution's Forest Global Earth Observatory Network.
