Spotlight on... Dr Alex Tasker

This week we meet Alex, who is Teaching Fellow in Human Ecology and Biological Anthropology at UCL Anthropology. Alex has developed an online cross-disciplinary summer school to support veterinary students during the Covid-19 restrictions - and chats to us about it here. What is your role and what does it involve?. I am a Teaching Fellow in Human Ecology and Biological Anthropology at UCL Anthropology. My role is primarily an Undergraduate and Postgraduate teaching and supervisory post, but there are plenty of opportunities to engage in other projects - I've recently got more involved in UCL's Widening Participation programme with London schools to engage non-traditional university applicants, and right now I'm working with a few groups on Covid-19 projects. How long have you been at UCL and what was your previous role?. I started my post in September 2019, but did actually do my MSc in Anthropology, Environment, and Development here back in 2011.
