Dr Lucy Timbrell 

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Human Palaeosystems Group at the Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology and the Human Origins Group in the Department of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology at the University of Liverpool. My work employs a variety of quantitative approaches, such as geometric morphometrics and eco-cultural niche modelling, to investigate the articulation between material culture, demography and social structures, and environments in the past. I have taught various topics within archaeology and human evolution studies at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. I enjoy science communication, help organise the Human Palaeosystems in Focus Seminar Series and the Merseyside Evolutionary Network Distinguished Lecture Series, and run a website and book series: Conversations in Human Evolution.
