We officially came full circle today, ending the program where it began with a goodbye brunch at the Cheese Cottage. We’re so grateful for this amazing experience, and we hope you’ve enjoyed coming along for the ride! #itsbeenreal #takeitcheesey #NSFREU #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA

After an inspiring discussion on ethics with Dr. de la Cova, half of the fellows left for University of Alabama at Birmingham to CT scan carefully selected bones for their projects; the other half got back to the lab to continue data collection. #NSFREU #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA

This morning we got to enjoy a wonderful visit (via zoom) from Dr. Leslie Williams for a lecture on quantitative methods and statistics! Afterwards, we dove straight back into developing methods for our projects. #NSFREU #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA #almostfriday

This morning we enjoyed post-exam doughnuts outside with our TA’s (thanks Bailee😊) and we were assigned our research topics and partners! We’re excited to get started with background research this afternoon! #NSFREU #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA

After a fun day of studying the hip and leg bones, and an intro lecture on bone biology, we all got together for our weekly Wednesday Dinner. This week we ordered pho—yum! Bone fact of the day: The patella is the largest sesamoid bone! #NSFREU #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA

@stein_science @QuinnipiacU Congratulations! I look forward to working with you!

Welcome to our 2022 #NSFREU fellows! We had our first full day yesterday, including a campus tour and orientation to the lab. Follow along as they post daily about their research! #bioarchaeology #REU_BoBA

Excited to welcome our REU fellows to Mobile with a sunny forecast this summer 😎 #NSFREU #REU_BoBA

@petrabonegirl Beyond infuriating. And every the time the news says "where did this start?" it's more infuriating, because Al Jazeera was showing police harassment and brutality every night during Ramadan at Damascus Gate (I mean, in addition to the longer answer about where this starts)

@jaimeullinger I thought so. Still infuriated but also slightly relieved that some folks I know aren’t threatened - yet. 😔

I’m trying to find a map showing which homes in #SheikhJarrah are targeted for forced displacement - are these across from that wackadoodle settler compound across from the Automatic Grocery? Or further up the hill? Anyone know?

Our wonderful TAs Tessa and Anna are hard at work organizing student binders in preparation for our REU fellows’ arrival in less than a week! #NSFREU #REU_BoBA

Critical framing from ⁦@Lana_Tatour⁩: This isn’t a civil war, it is settler-colonial brutality – Mondoweiss #SaveSheikhJarrah #Gaza #Haifa #Lydd #Jerusalem #Palestinian mondoweiss.net/2021/05/this-i…

If you really care about ending the violence, then the first step is lifting the siege on Gaza. Thank you @camanpour for the space to make that clear. #Gaza #SaveSheikhJarrah #Jerusalem #Haifa #Lydd #Palestinian #Freedom

Harrowing intensive artillery shelling & airstrikes on #Gaza with reports of numerous casualties. My heart goes out to each & every Palestinian there as #Israel rains indiscriminate death on this captive population. #Gaza_Under_Attack

@UNLVanthro Congratulations @silviitoe 🎉🎉

We know. It's finals week and some of you are graduating. Yet others are preparing for interesting future experiences-- like #UNLV #anthropology undergrad Silvio Ernesto Mirabel Torres receiving AANAPISI, LSAMP, and McNair SRI support (w/ Dr. Jenny Byrnes) for summer research.

What “surgical strikes”? What “self defence”? What #stateterrorism looks like. What heartbreak! #PalestineWillBeFree!

We’re back on campus at the University of South Alabama to prepare for our 2021 REU program! Watch this space - our students arrive next week and will begin posting soon after! #NSFREU #REU_BoBA
