Muhammad Spocter’s Expertise I am a broadly trained biological anthropologist with a primary research interest in the comparative neuroanatomy of large brained, social species. I am passionate about community engaged scholarship and as a first generation college student I am an ardent supporter of initiatives that help to expand STEM education. I am from South Africa and completed my graduate training at the University of Witwatersrand (Ph.D. 2007, MSc. 2004) under the supervision of Professor Paul Manger. I relocated to the USA and subsequently started postdoctoral training under the guidance of Professor Chet Sherwood at The George Washington University. In the Fall of 2011, I joined the Anatomy Department at Des Moines University and established the Evolving Brain Lab with the goal of expanding our understanding of the mammalian brain and its evolutionary history. Specialties: Statistical analysis and phylogenetic methods, probablistic mapping, stereology, neuroanatomy, and musculoskeletal anatomy, histological methods applied to neuroanatomy, Please have a look at my profile on Academia.edu for examples of course material I have put together. Also have a look at my Laboratory webpage and ResearchGate account for an overview of some of the research projects I am currently engaged in. https://www.spocter.com/ https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Muhammad_Spocter
