William de Jong-Lambert
TC and GSAS 2005; Harriman Certificate 2005

I recently submitted an Oral History of Hungarian protozoologist Miklos Muller to the Rockefeller Archive Center, which includes an interview with the late István Deák, a beloved professor at the Harriman for many decades. I also recently completed a two-month Eugene Garfield Fellowship at the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia researching the papers of Polish/Ukrainian/Russian geneticist Theodosius Dobzhansky. I will spend the spring 2025 semester as a Fulbright Scholar in Brazil researching Dobzhansky’s impact upon Brazilian genetics in local archives, while teaching a course on Dobzhansky at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul.
