My PhD, undertaken at the University of Cambridge, focused on the correspondence between athletic activity patterns and skeletal variation in humans. Previous post-doctoral research at The Department of Anthropology and The Center for Quantitative Imaging, The Pennsylvania State University, assessed both cortical and trabecular bone morphology in humans and non-human primates, and questioned how morphology is influenced by general activity patterns. At present, I hold the position of Cushing Research Fellow within the Phenotypic Adaptability, Variation and Evolution (PAVE) Research Group and the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, Department of Archaeology & Anthropology, and am also a Research Associate at Corpus Christi College at the University of Cambridge, UK.
