Refining near-infrared spectroscopy for collagen quantification: A new predictive model for archaeological bone
Journal of Archaeological Science,
v. 185
Doi: http://doi.org/10.1016/j.jas.2025.106448
Biography
I conduct research on the persistence of proteins in ancient samples, using modelling to explore the racemization of amino acids and thermal history to predict the survival of DNA and other molecules. Using a combination of approaches (including immunology and protein mass spectrometry) my research detects and interprets protein remnants in archaeological and fossil remains.
With former PhD student Dr Mike Buckley I developed ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry) a way to rapidly identify bone and other collagen based materials using peptide mass fingerprinting.

Research
The application of ancient proteins to archaeology
Analysis of protein evolution and decay
I am presently involved in the following research projects in:
2016 - 2021 Niels Bohr Professor of Palaeoproteomics: University of Copenhagen: To establish new research capacity in plaeoprotemics in Denmark
2018 - 2023 Beasts to Craft: Parchment as a biological archive
2019 - 2023 ArcHives: Beeswax as a biological archive

Information for Prospective Postgraduate Students
Students that work with me have to be self motivated as my post in Cambridge is only 40%, 60% of the time I am in Copenhagen. At present I have sufficient students, and do not think that I can realistically supervise more than I am planning to take on in 2021 from the ChemArch and PlaCE ITNs
I do not take self funded students, but will try to work with you to help find funding.
I like to collaborate so if you do contact me, I may try to find a way for you to work with my colleagues and I.

I currently supervise students investigating in a range of topics related to the use of proteins to address archaeological research questions from evolution, to diet, disease, demography and chronology. I am interested in supervising students with a passion to work across disciplines who wish to study for an MPhil or a PhD in the following topics:
- Modelling the survival and decay of ancient proteins
- Mathematical approaches to the analysis of complex datasets
- Developing low cost tools for demography
- Developing novel methods to extract and analyse ancient proteins
- Applying ancient protein analysis to their archaeological repertoire
