Angela Clark

Biography

  Dr. Angela Clark is a bioarchaeologist with research expertise in the biosocial interactions influencing human skeletal and dental developmental plasticity as a response to stress. Her research address central bioarchaeological questions of the intensification of agriculture and how humans responded to this critical transitional period in prehistory. Her research interests include human adaptability and variability, and using new tools and approaches to better understand how diverse communities, different ancestries, and unique environments play their role in buffering or facilitating the stress response. She is internationally recognised for her research in the study of the physiological stress response in the past. She is particularly interested in the emerging field of forensic bioarchaeology; integrating my existing skills in bioarchaeology with my professional connections and experience in forensic science to empower forensic human identification.
