The department of Anthropology at UConn would like to congratulate our very own Dr. Deborah Bolnick for being the 2020 recipient of the Robert W. Sussman Award for Scientific Contributions to the field of Anthropology. The Anthropology section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) established this award to recognize the accomplishments of mid-career anthropological scientists in the field of Anthropology.  The AAAS cites Dr. Bolnick’s contributions to the science of anthropological genetics as both insightful and prolific.
