I am an anthropologist by training having received my PhD at the University of Montana, USA. I have over 5 years of postdoc research with a specialization in paleogenetics. I am a former Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow (2016-2018), where I focused on optimization methods of the petrous bone at University College, Dublin. I am a trained bioarchaeologist, where I have worked in Mexico, Mongolia, Japan, Ukraine, and the United States.
My focus at CIBIO will be on unraveling the processes of canid domestication as part of the WOOF project.
