Most notably is the UCSD/Salk Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny (CARTA), with whom we have worked annually since 2011.

Center for Academic Research and Teaching in Anthropology

The Center for Academic Research and Teaching in Anthropogeny (CARTA) based at UCSD has provided critical financial support that has allowed for the continued maintenance and growth of our work. As part of the graduate program in Anthropogeny at UCSD, some CARTA students and staff also participate in a field course that addresses the origins and adaptations of our species.
