New Graduate Student Joins the Lab!

Our newest graduate student addition to the lab is Andreana (Andree) Cunningham. She was born and raised in South Florida. She completed her B.A. degree at University of Miami in May of 2016, with majors in Anthropology and Criminology. Some of her past research experiences have included the analysis of skeletal remains of 19th century salmon cannery workers excavated in Kodiak Island, AK, the reconstruction of mobility patterns of ancient peoples through heavy isotope testing, and the study of skeletal thoracic trauma in forensic contexts. For fun, she loves to read books and comics, practice her artwork, and eat waffles. While at UF, she hopes to study genetic diversity manifested on the skeleton in relation to participants in and descendants of the African diaspora.
