UW Anthropology and CSDE Affiliate Melanie Martin (Anthropology) hosted the 9th Northwest Evolution, Ecology, and Human Behavior (NWEEHB) Symposium at the UW Pack Forest Conference Center on February 27-March 1.  This was the first time UW has served as host for this biennial, interdisciplinary gathering of regional human evolution and ecology researchers. The event drew 45 attendees from seven universities across the Pacific Northwest and Canada, including 26 graduate and undergraduate students. The symposium included workshops on computational methods and pedagogy, a student poster session, and talks spanning topics from hominin evolution and tool use to climate adaptation, reproductive ecology, and the transmission of cultural knowledge in contemporary societies. The symposium was supported by the UW Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology (CSDE), UW eScience Institute, and the UW Department of Anthropology.
