Training survey personnel in Dhaka prior to pre-test of survey

 

Trying to locate the households in Teknaf whose consanguinity status was recorded in 1985

 

An inter-disciplinary team

 

The road was partially under water on the way back after heavy rains

 

Household found!

 

Located the son who was born in 1985 and interviewing his father whose consanguinity status we knew

 

Amazing hospitality.  This family gave me over 2 hours of their time and fresh coconut water!

 

Hills in Burma (Teknaf is on the border, but I didn’t cross for (legitimate) fears of getting shot

 

On the road to Teknaf – the Bay of Bengal (Indian Ocean) – see Perth picture below for another view

 

One perk of doing inter-disciplinary research: visiting my collaborator, geneticist Alan Bittles in Perth

 

 

Anna’s birthday in Alan’s house

 

Sunset over the Indian Ocean from another side – this is the same body of water that reaches Teknaf
