Andree recently traveled to Auburn University as part of her dissertation research on cranial morphological diversity across the African diaspora. Auburn University curates the skeletal remains of enslaved individuals from Newton Plantation, a burial site in Barbados. Andree visited the collection to gain a better understanding of the site’s history and skeletal preservation. She plans to return to Auburn next semester to scan fragmented cranial remains and perform virtual reconstructions.
