The 2014-2015 field season is here! Please CLICK HERE to post questions.
Hi everyone. I will be checking here for questions for the 2014-2015 field season in the McMurdo Dry Valleys. Looking forward to hearing from you! Feel free to add questions and comments below.
Hi Dan, Thanks for the question. I'll post a response on the main page soon. A quick answer: get involved in undergraduate research. That will open doors into the research community.
We are members of a Second Grade Classroom in Troy, Michigan and we have some questions for you, Eric.

Hi friends, this is ganapathy krishnamoorthy from Tamilnadu, India.I am doing masters in microbiology and aspired towards doing phd in usa . I would like to know if it's possible to do research in biology in Antarctica as a graduate researcher,i mean after getting admitted in a US university, and please explain how it works..
As a current college student, how does one get in contact or find the "path" to conduct research in Antartica?
