Virginia Blanton CURATORS DISTINGUISHED PROFESS

    Research Description
    Currently, the CODICES team, a group of Humanities, Sciences, and Computing specialists, is working on several book history and multispectral imaging projects. We are eager to have students from various disciplines participate in our project, which includes digitizing medieval and early modern books and taking multispectral images of these books to uncover that which cannot be seen with the naked eye. Also, my own research focuses on medieval culture, both secular (romances such as King Arthur) and sacred (saints' lives).

The Director of Undergraduate Research, Dr. Jane Greer., can provide you with further guidance about finding and connecting with faculty mentors at UMKC.

Once you have reviewed the essential steps to prepare for connecting with a potential faculty mentor, you can use the "Contact Details" for this project to connect with the faculty member and to begin a conversation about how you might work with that him or her.
