Volcanologist Floyd McCoy from the University of Hawaii reflects on a busy year as Visiting Research Professor in the Wiener Laboratory, leading a student trip to Santorini, exploring new ideas with colleagues, and writing (when time permitted).
The Wiener Laboratory is an active research department, within the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, dedicated to archaeological science in Greece. The laboratory was created through the vision of Malcolm H. Wiener and it remains sustained by his generosity.
The Wiener Laboratory Committee is a Standing Committee of the Managing Committee of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens and is composed of the Director of the Laboratory, the Director of the School, and seven leading scholars:
Nancy Wilkie (2006-2011), Chairman (2006-2011)
Mary Stiner (2004-2009)
Jeremy Rutter (2005-2010)
Maria Liston (2006-2011)
Thomas Tartaron (2007-2012)
Scott Pike (2008-2013)
