Research:<\/strong>
I am interested in the reconstruction, by means of a variety of molecular instruments and
methods, of biological landscapes and the lifestyles that defined historical populations and
societies. Of particular significance for me are the medieval populations and the space they
occupied in the proximity of the Romanian Black Sea coast. Their inferred demography,
movement, resource management and impact on the environment can be correlated with
cultural traces revealed by archaeological excavation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
