REU Site in Physical Anthropology

该奖项为北卡罗莱纳大学格林斯博罗分校主办的REU体质人类学网站提供资金。本科学生将在人类骨学方面开展原创研究项目，作为培养他们成为研究人员、科学家和领导者的工具。在三年的时间里，每年都有10名学生将参与分析和记录巴雷特遗址440多具晚期人类骨骼的各个阶段。学生的研究项目将着眼于(1)在人类骨骼材料的库存、分析和记录方面开发科学可视化的新应用，以及(2)有助于我们了解这些晚期古代猎人和采集者的生物文化适应性。活动将包括在实验室工作，每学期两门课程，专业和职业发展，以及参观博物馆和考古遗址。该奖项有助于基金会继续努力，通过积极的本科研究经历吸引有才华的学生进入科学事业。

This award provides funds for an REU Site in Physical Anthropology hosted by the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Undergraduate students will develop original research projects in human osteology as a vehicle for fostering their growth as researchers, scientists and leaders. Each year for three years, 10 students will participate in all phases of the analysis and documentation of over 440 human skeletons from the Late Archaic period Barrett site. The students' research projects will be aimed at (1) developing new applications of scientific visualization toward the inventory, analysis and recordation of human skeletal material, and (2) contributing to our understanding of biocultural adaptation of these Late Archaic hunters and gatherers. Activities will include work in the laboratory, two courses each semester, professional and career development, and excursions to museums and archaeological sites. This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.
