Arctic Thriller


What are ecological researchers to do after several weeks at an isolated camp in Arctic Alaska? Bust a move, of course! Christopher Neill introduces a rare display of polar dancing captured on camera. Check out the video in the panel to the right.

When not dancing in the Arctic, Christopher Neill is a senior scientist in the Ecosystems Center at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole. Over the past several years, he has led the MBL's Logan Science Journalism Program Polar Hands-On Laboratory at Toolik Field Station, in northern Alaska, where this TEDxWoodsHole video was captured by Kelly Rockwell. Chris also directs the Brown-MBL Partnership and the Brown-MBL Graduate Program in Biological and Environmental Sciences.
