Overview

Our primary focuses are independent research and teaching human gross anatomy, with research areas covered by faculty and students that range from vertebrate fossils, to primates to recent human remains.

Features

As a result of the interdisciplinary training of the Functional Anatomy and Evolution graduate program at Johns Hopkins University, our graduates are well equipped to face the challenge of today's academic job market.

Programme Structure

Research

All students are required to engage in independent research, and a laboratory research rotation under faculty guidance begins soon after their arrival. Research may utilize our large collection of fossil and extant vertebrates as well as departmental research equipment.

Research is further facilitated by our proximity to the collections of recent and fossil vertebrates held at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., which can be accessed by a hour journey on public transport.

Baltimore's excellent location offers ease of access to other major museums on the East Coast, as well as several international airports to travel to museums and collections around the world.
