We are starting an anthropological epigenetics journal club to review current papers in the field! As we read different articles and discuss different topics, we will post notes on the big ideas and questions that arise during our meetings.
We are a group of researchers and educators interested in anthropological epigenetics with the goal of providing free teaching resources for other academic parties that are interested in teaching courses on this topic to students.
We have compiled several resources and example materials for educational use, and we hope that instructors can use these to plan and develop their own teaching materials to better prepare students. Science is always moving forward, though, and we aim to continue adding to and curating this site. If you have suggestions or would like to share your teaching resources with us, please comment below or contact us at [email protected]. Thanks! |
