EDUCATION/TRAINING
Lots!  Currently working toward completion of a Ph.D. in Biomaterials at the University of Sheffield, U.K.

RESEARCH INTERESTS:
My most recent research has been in the genre of nanobiotechnology; more specifically studying the nature of the enthesis (osteotendon junction) to acquire information for the creation of new biomaterials and implants. I have performed previous research in comparative orthopedics and have a keen interest in skeletal biology. I have spent many years working as an osteoarcheologist (animal and human remains) in the Levant specializing in the Bronze and Iron Ages – a passion of mine within this field is paleopathology. Further interests include Forensic Science, phylogeny through the study of   ancient DNA, Medical History, and last but not least the development of the Anatomical Sciences.
