TEACHING

I am a faculty member in the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History.

I am also a faculty member of the Koobi Fora Field School. This field school combines traditional instruction with field-based research projects collecting original data relevant for hominin evolution.  Click here to learn more about this field program in remote northern Kenya!

In the past I have taught cadaver-based human gross anatomy for health professionals. Some of the courses and locations I have taught include: 
  • Structure and Function, Howard University
  • Regional Human Gross Anatomy, Stony Brook University
  • Human Gross Anatomy for Health Professions, University of Missouri
  • Integrated Morphology 1 and 2, Florida Atlantic University Schmidt College of Medicine
  • Human Gross Anatomy, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine
  • Human Gross Anatomy, Florida Atlantic University College of Biomedicine

OUTREACH

I am also engaged in public outreach through digital media and in-person events.  I have hosted introductory and advanced anatomy-focused outreach events for grade school, high-school, and community college students.  I am actively working towards publicly-accessible written science, which can impact a larger community online (for instance, click here) and through social media initiatives (for instance, click here).
