This TREET connection was from the Inner Space Center at URI and the connection was with a classroom at Duke University. Transforming Remotely-conducted Research through Ethnography, Education & Rapidly Evolving Technologies (TREET) represents research at the complex interface between scientific fieldwork, new educational opportunities for students, and the expanding use of telepresence technologies to make remote exploration available to scientists, students, and the general public.
Image Of the Day caption:
As part of the TREET (Transforming Remotely Conducted Research Through Ethnography, Education & Rapidly Evolving Technologies) program, senior scientist Chris German and recent Harvard graduate, Alexandra Stote, connected with a classroom at Duke University led by biologist (and former Alvin pilot) Cindy Van Dover. The TREET program was designed to instruct early career scientists and their undergraduate students on the use of telepresence technology in deep ocean research. Stote used the opportunity to discuss plans for an upcoming biology dive where she directed operations via telepresence from the shore.
