- Don Brothwell
-
Recognised for his work in both human and animal paleopathology, Don Brothwell has interests in the broad field of the archaeological sciences, but particularly in human palaeoecology (which includes environmental archaeology). Currently based at the University of York in York, England, he is still active in the field despite his retirement and current research projects include an investigation of Mummies in the Yemen (with Stephen Buckley).
