Interests
I'm primarily interested in understanding regional connectivity and local community structure through the combination of archaeological, anthropological, and archaeogenetic approaches. My work focusses on projects from tropical regions, including Southeast Asia and Mesoamerica, as well as Iron Age Central Europe. I have experience working in the field, in the laboratory and bioinformatic analyses and am co-organiser of the department's Ethics Interest Group.
