My research interests are focused broadly upon the age and sex-related changes in bone quantity and quality, and I am particularly interested in the application of biocultural and evolutionary approaches to the study of bone fragility. My work has examined age-related changes in cortical bone microstructure, trabecular architecture, and mineral density in several British archaeological populations, and I am currently examining the long-term effect of parity and lactation on the human and non-human primate maternal skeleton.
