John Ziker

John P. Ziker began field research in northern Siberia in 1992. His book, Peoples of the Tundra: Northern Siberians in the Post-Communist Transition (Waveland Press, Inc., 2002), summarizes that work in the Taimyr Autonomous Region. Subsequently, he has worked in the north Baikal region, the Tuva Republic in Siberia, and in central Mozambique. He is a co-PI on a study of how social networks affect adoption of evidence-based instructional practices among faculty in STEM departments, and most recently he started a project on interactions of climate change and industrial development in the Arctic.
