This week Paddy Moore and H. Gregory of The Leakey Foundation’s grants department are in Atlanta for the annual Paleoanthropology Society and the American Association of Physical Anthropologists conferences being held in the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. This is one of our favorite events of the year as we get to meet so many new and former grantees, thank our reviewers and say hello to our colleagues and friends!
If you are a Leakey Foundation grantee, please come say hi, and if you are giving a talk or presenting a poster, please let us know when and where we can find you. Also, if you would like to promote your work via our blog, please let us know!
Here are a few of our friends from the PAS poster session Tuesday afternoon:
