Lisa Rhodes (BA Anthropology and Ecology/Evolutionary Biology 2020) has been named a Fulbright finalists for the 2023–24Ìýacademic year by the U.S. Department of State and the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board. With her Fulbright, she will work closely with Da Nang University and nongovernmental agencies to explore the efficacy of several canopy bridges installed in the Son Tra Nature Reserve in Da Nang, Vietnam.

Canopy bridges are a novel solution to the impacts of habitat fragmentation on the Red Shanked Douc Langur. Rhodes will collect additional ethnographic data on the changing cultural and social relationships with the environment through local efforts to encourage hands-on learning and education.
