My research interests are primarily in paleopopulation analyses. These include: paleogenetics, paleoepidemiology and paleodemography. Currently, my main interest is integrating morphology and ancient DNA in terms of identifying within-group relationships. My recent research has focused on a Roman period population from the Dakhleh Oasis, Egypt. I have worked on numerous occasions with the Regional Coroner's Office and have acted as an expert witness in several criminal cases. My skeletal research has been highlighted three times in the last four years on The Discovery Channel and in Equinox magazine. |
