Once again, Joe Levine and Ken Miller will sponsor Summer Tropical Biology Scholarships for several Teachers.
We received over 150 entries for the 2011 program, and selected several outstanding essays. Our winning teachers (and several others) enjoyed an unforgettable two weeks of research and learning with Joe Levine and Barbara Bentley at the Organization for Tropical Studies in Costa Rica.
Our 2011 winners were:
Claire Birone, Babylon, NY
Dayna Britton, South Lyon, MI
Galeet Cohen, Philadelphia, PA
Cinda Murray, Cambridge Springs, PA
and (sponsored via an NSF grant):
Danielle Ferguson, Baltimore, MD
Verónica García Alvarez, San José, CR
Christopher Montero de Hooge, San José, CR
Important Information: If you do not win one of our scholarships for the 2012 course, and if you have at least some other funding, you can still take the course this summer by applying through OTS. (A few partial scholarships may be available.)
