Biology Professor Michael Miyamoto provides awesome Study Abroad experience for students

Biology Professor Michael Miyamoto and co-instructor Michelle Tennant led a 6-week Study Abroad course to Madagascar this summer.   Together with 12 UF students, they travelled in one of the world’s most biologically diverse landscapes and explored the many conservation issues the country faces.  The students participated in a number of valuable projects, including planting more than 300 native saplings for the Centre ValBio Field Station’s reforestation project (pictured).  Thank you to Mike and Michelle for providing such a unique and rewarding experience for our students!
