My Biography

Daniel E. Moerman (he/him/his) (PhD, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, 1974; MA, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, 1965; AB, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, 1963) is an expert in Native American Ethnobotany, cultural variation in the placebo effect, the meaning response. He has conducted research on Black American Family Organization in Saint Helena Island, South Carolina and done library based research on the placebo effect at the University oh Michigan-Dearborn. In addition, he has received grant funding of some $514,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health in support of his research. Daniel went to his first AAA annual meeting in 1973 and says “It was a blast!”

We want to express our concern for our members and colleagues in the potentially affected areas as we monitor Hurricane Milton. As we approach our Annual Meeting scheduled for November 20-23, we will keep you updated on any developments and how they may impact our plans in Tampa. In the meantime, we hope everyone stays safe and takes the necessary precautions.
