Jeffrey Seckinger
Graduate Student

Jeffrey received his BA in Archaeology from the University of Saskatchewan, and MSc in Skeletal and Dental Bioarchaeology from University College London. He is interested in applying a biocultural approach and integrating new materialisms into studies of health, disease, and embodiment. He hopes to examine patterns of early life stress and its effects on health over the life course in the context of cultural and political changes in Medieval Italian society, with particular reference to notions of eschatology, sex, and gender roles.
