Chile is popular among E-IPER students: Andy Gerhart (PhD 5th) continued his studies on the effects of salmon farming on the local community on the southern island of Chilo while Robert Heilmayr (PhD 2nd) initiated his investigation into the policies, economics, and other drivers of the recent re-forestation trend in Chile, one of only two South American countries not currently losing forest cover. PhD: Greg Bratman, Justin Mankin, Fran Moore, Dan Reineman, Nik Sawe, Nicola Ulibarri When you go to do something challenging in a foreign country, you are going to face a lot of obstacles, and there are going to be many times when you think there is something wrong with you - that you won't be able to do what you want to do. Yeesh. But that sort of fear is paralyzing and is actually the only thing keeping you from being successful.

Aaron's project focused on invasive seaweed monitoring and removal, Kaipo researched and mapped traditional Hawai'ian land use and place names, while Allison focused on communication about the place. Law and Science Mix it Up- Joint JD-MS students find strategic niches to preserve our land and oceans. Steve interviewed all students in the first three PhD cohorts, and introduced them to the world of "interdisciplinarity" in one of their first classes at Stanford. Jen Hashimoto (University of Hawai'i Hilo) helped Rachelle write a journal article reporting on the summer's findings related to perceptions of the film Avatar in Hawai'i, and she also spearheaded the set-up of a restoration project investigating the effectiveness of planting native plant seeds directly on 'nurse logs' (dead wood on the forest floor) as a restoration technique. Below is a quick sampling of E-IPER's global reach. In my first chapter, I examine how affective dimensions (e.g., place attachment) and other psychological factors relate to coral reef conservation behavior on Maui, Hawaii through a community-engaged survey-based study. students at Stanford's School of Medicine, or students pursuing a Ph.D. in another Stanford school or department. Recent Joint JD-MS graduates are finding a variety of career options that take advantage of their legal training and scientific coursework. Nicole M.
