- ACADEMIC BIOGRAPHY:
I joined the Anthropology department as a M.A. student in 2019 Fall.
I hold a B.A. degree in Anthropology from Stony Brook University. Prior to joining the Rutgers Masters Program in Anthropology, I engaged in several research projects examining the influences of different genotype mutations on the volume and density in endochondral and intramembranous bones in mice.
- CURRENT PROJECTS:
Currently, I'm working on how surgical birth would lead to bone modification, and how microbial restoration will normalize the phenotype. I hope to find the link between developmental changes and microbial disruption.
- RESEARCH INTERESTS:
Modern human osteology, bone modification under microbial disruption
