Unit 3 Scientist Summary
\nThroughout this unit we have included some biographies of scientists working in the fields of study that we have covered in this class. We would like to hear what you think about their work, their story, and how it relates to your life. Please choose one scientist from the unit and write a short reflection paragraph in your own words (less than 250 words).<\/p>\n
This is a reflection, not a test of knowledge. We are most interested in hearing why you chose the scientist and why their work is meaningful or interesting to you. PLEASE DO NOT repeat their academic history.<\/p>\n

oxygen delivery at high altitudes, and with the human ecology of high-altitude Tibetan nomads.<\/p>\n
Beall is a Distinguished University Professor and S. Idell Pyle Professor of Anthropology at Case Western Reserve University where she began teaching and research in 1976. She received a Ph.D. in 1976 and an M.A. in 1972 from The Pennsylvania State University.<\/p>\n
