CURRENT RESEARCH
I am currently continuing my research on the
culture of a folk Catholicism tradition of milagres, mimetic
votive offerings in Northeast Brazil and preparing a manuscript
for submission in the Fall of 2011. Two years ago I began a
relationship with The Himalayan health Exchange, a
non-governmental health service program.
In Summer of 2012 and 2013 we
hope to begin an applied human ecology program of research the
Himalayan region of India.
