EDEn BLACKWELLPhD Student
[email protected] I’m a PhD student in Biocultural Medical Anthropology. My previous degrees are in international studies and sociology (BA) from the University of Mississippi and international health and development (MPH) from Tulane University. Much of my professional experience has been in health policy, a field I maintain a passion for and one I hope to complement through a study of biocultural medical anthropology. My current research interests involve the impacts of climate change on human health and culture, human-environment interactions, and global health, broadly.

Nigar SultanaI am a PhD student in Biocultural Medical Anthropology. I completed my undergraduate and master’s in Anthropology at Comilla University in Bangladesh. Most of my research is based on gender studies and public health issues related to women and children (especially adolescents). I believe studying Biocultural Medical Anthropology will expand my research knowledge and field in a broad way. My current research interests involve adolescent girls' stress management, specifically in dealing with mental health problems during and after pregnancy, from a cross-cultural perspective.

Yuliya GluhovaMA Student
[email protected] I am an MA student primarily focused on Biocultural Medical Anthropology. My fascination with anthropology began through biology and history classes in my high school in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan. Learning about evolution, genetics, and the extensive history of Turkmen and Russian migration deeply fascinated me. I nurtured this interest in anthropology at Mississippi State University, where I earned a BA in Anthropology and a Certificate in Medical Humanities. During my time there, I interned with the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage, as well as various development non-profits including Eurasia Foundation, MADRE, and the International Institute at Buffalo, among others. Additionally, I had the opportunity to contribute to two research projects at Mississippi State University and the University of California, Irvine. My anthropological interests are broad, encompassing public and global health, the Russian and Spanish languages, and ethnography.
