bio=Since graduating I have worked abroad in both Democratic Republic of Congo
doing field work in a bonobo (Pan paniscus) research camp and Leipzig Germany,
at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology. After two years of
living out of a duffel bag in those respective places, I started working in
the Anthropology Department, in Emory University in Dr. Patricia Whitten's Lab
for Reproductive Endocrinology and Environmental Toxicology (this lab's particular
specialty is non-invasive fecal steroid analysis). I am now a grad student at
Emory, in the Anthro. department, working under Dr. Whitten and am interested
in a wide range of issues centered on behavioral endocrinology of the bonobos
(mating competition, conflict resolution, affiliative behaviors in non-kin,
etc.) as well as their conservation and related issues, which transcend a myriad
of political, social, economic and environmental issues not ony in sub-saharan
Africa, but the rest of the world as well. I live in Atlanta, and am always
happy to help out other oberliners when and where I can.

bio=I got my M.H.S. and Ph.D. (2000) in epidemiology from Johns Hopkins University
School of Hygiene and Public Health. I stayed on another year to do a post-doc
at Hopkins in epidemiology. I joined Wyeth as a Senior Health Outcomes Scientist
after finishing the post-doc. Doing research in the private sector is much more
fast pace, but it is just as interesting and challenging as in academia.

...I just started graduate school...[P]lease feel free to distribute my contact
information to any students interested in talking about applying to and selecting
a graduate program. I know that's what advisors are for, but sometimes
it can help to hear from someone who has just gone through the process.
Thanks,

bio=For two years I worked at a cognition laboratory affiliated with
the University of Hawaii. I have just started a Ph.D program in Neurobiology
and Behavior at the University of Washington. I highly recommend
this program especially for students who are interested in neuroscience
but are unsure about what sub-field they would like to study. This
program requires first year students to rotate through three or four laboratories
before choosing a thesis lab. The program is highly interdisciplinary
the faculty and staff create a supportive and challenging atmosphere and
the faculty work with a strong spirit of collaboration. also recommend
taking time off for anyone who is unsure about where to go for graduate
school. I feel like I am much better prepared to face the challenges of
graduate school now that I know exactly where I want to be and what kind
of work I want to pursue. Most of the incoming graduate students
are not starting directly from undergraduate school. Don't know who
will be reading this but students are welcome to e-mail me
if they have any questions about this program or graduate school in general.

Grad=1974
bio=Spent a year as a lab tech at the pain Research Lab of Dr. Kenneth
Casey
at the University of Michigan. Entered graduate school in Experimental
Psychology at the University of Minnesota where I obtained my PhD doing
single cell/intracellular recording in the retina studying the physiological
processes underlying color vision and contrast perception.
Accepted a position in the Department of Physiology (about to become
the
Dept. of Cellular and Molecular Physiology) in 1988, where I have continued
research in the retina, with a current focus on synaptic tranmission
and
the role of glutamate receptor subtypes in information processing.
I teach and coordinate one week of a 3 week intensive laboratory course
in
cellular neuroscience held in the beautiful Biology Field station at
the
headwaters of the Mississippi River in Itasca State park. The course
(originally
funded by a Hughes grant) has attracted students from all over the
US.
After the 3 week course, students spend 6 weeks working (and getting
paid) in
research laboratories at the Minneapolis campus of the University of
Minnesota.
(Okay, so it's a shameless 'plug' - it is such a great course, I won't
apologize)
Feel free to email me for
more information.
