Academic Background
2015.09–2019.03 伦敦大学学院，考古研究所，考古科学博士
2014.09–2015.09 伦敦大学学院，考古研究所，考古科学硕士
2008.09–2009.09 诺丁汉大学，心理学学院，认知行为学硕士
1988.09–1992.09 萨里大学，材料科学与工程学院，物理学博士
1984.10–1988.07 萨里大学，材料科学与工程学院，物理学学士
I have been publishing scientific research since the early 1990s. My background is in materials science and includes working with polymers, composites and carbon nanotubes. I have also been a teacher and teacher trainer in schools and universities, and a strategic planner for humanitarian aid organisations.
As an archaeological scientist, I specialise in analysing archaeometric data. Over the past few years, I have worked on Parthian and Sasanian glazed pottery, New Kingdom Egypt cobalt-blue glass, Bronze and Iron Age silver from around the Mediterranean, Roman coins and ancient recycling.
My current research focusses on Chinese archaeology. As a Professor of Archaeology in the School of History and Culture at Henan University, I apply and develop methods and techniques that can be utilised to address questions regarding the artefacts unearthed in China in order to better understand the actions and behaviours of people in the past.
