Does luck influence your risk of death, and if so, what might that mean for studies of ancient health? To find out, join us for our next seminar @ 1pm 18/10 AEDT, where Bronwyn Wyatt (ANU) will present her research exploring the complexity of mortality in past peoples!

A new method of adult age estimation from the brilliant Jisun Jang - all you need is a laser scanner and R! If anyone gives it a go I'd love to hear how you get on sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We integrated skeletal and aDNA data for 167 individuals to understand health across the shift to farming, representing a snapshot of this dynamic and nuanced process (pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.21…). The project was a team effort and I’m fortunate to have worked with awesome people!
