Student researchers for Professor MacKenzie Cooley's New World Nature project examined the relationships between natural things and their environments to reconstruct how early moderns learned from the nature in which they lived at the dawn of the biological disciplines. Students conducted original research in the history of science in Canada, the Dominican Republic, France, Puerto Rico, Spain, and the United States.
