Persons
Dr. Gerald D. Tharp is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL). He received his Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy from UNL in 1958, his Master of Science in Physiology from UNL in 1961, and his Ph.D. from the University of Iowa in 1965. He has been presented with two Distinguished Teaching awards from UNL and has done extensive research in Exercise Physiology with numerous papers. Dr. Tharp is a fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine.
Dr. David A. Woodman is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He received his Bachelor of Science in Zoology and Botany and his Master of Science in Marine Zoology from Bombay University and his Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska. He has taught General Biology, Ichthyology, Zoology, and Vertebrate Zoology at UNL but since 1990 has been teaching Anatomy and Physiology lectures and supervising the laboratories for these large courses. He is the recipient of a Distinguished Teaching Service Award from the College of Arts and Sciences, and several Outstanding Contributions to Students awards from the UNL Parents Association.
