UCSB Anthropology Brown Bag Lecture Series Presents:
Old Bones, DNA, and ... Me: An Introduction to Molecular Anthropology at UCSB
By Kevin Miller
About Kevin Miller: I took my B.Sc. in Physiology/Metabolism at Cornell
University and moved on to the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary
Medicine where I received an M.Sc., focusing on the Pathophysiology of Ecosinoids
during Pregnancy-induced Hypertension. I then worked for two years at the Georgetown
Medical Center on projects related to heart transplantation, HIV infection,
and brain function. I moved to England and conducted research at the Laboratory
of Molecular Biology and received a Ph.D. from Cambridge University. Work there
was on ancient migrations through the North Atlantic region and using mitochondrial
DNA from archaeological bone to answer questions relating to the degree of Celtic/Scandinavian
admixture in the Northern-most isles of Scotland.  |
