Apologies for the mass email, but Mark Denny and I are spreading the word that we will be teaching biomechanics at UW Friday Harbor Laboratories this summer (June 10 – July 12). You can get the details here: https://fhl.uw.edu/courses/course-descriptions/course/ecological-biomechanics-2024/.
Application review begins in early March and financial aid is available.  The course is pitched for grad students, but would be a great experience for an advanced undergrad, post-bac, post-doc or adventure-seeking professor.  

Are you interested in traveling to Yellowstone National Park over spring break? Want to see wolves, explore US National Park Service management, put your GIS and wildlife skills to work, or catch and track a raven?

Winter 2024: ANTH 210 Introduction to Environmental Anthropology
About: Anthropologists have long been interested in the relationships between people and the natural environment. For most of human history, the relationship between humans and the environments in which they have lived was largely one of resource extraction with relatively low levels of impact. This relationship with the environment changed quite dramatically after the advent of food domestication, as well as after the Industrial Revolution, and has kept pace ever since with new technological innovations and increased global political-economic relations between human populations that have affected the natural world at large.  

Great class for Juniors & Seniors considering grad school!
