Visiting Fulbright Scholar lecture and brown bag lunch

Dr. Maddie Brown is excited to share two events happening this Friday, October 17th in the Anthropology Department with a visiting scholar. Dr. Prasit Wangpakapattanawong is a Fulbright Scholar from Chiang Mai University in Thailand who is visiting UMD this semester. His work focuses on forest restoration and ethnoecology in northern Thailand. These events will be great opportunities to learn more about environmental social science in forest ecosystems.

 
First, at noon we will have a brown bag lunch discussion for graduate students with Dr. Prasit Wangpakapattanawong about applied environmental social science careers and research. Snacks will be provided, but feel free to bring your own lunch.
 
Second, at 2pm Dr. Wangpakapattanawong will give a talk in Woods 2101W about his ongoing research on forest ecology and ethnoecology across Southeast Asia. Everyone is welcome, so please spread the word about this talk through your networks.
