Research Summary

My research is focused on the effects of microbial bioerosion on the cortical surfaces of post-mortem bone. My work is aimed at understanding the relationship between microbial modifications on the cortical surfaces of post-mortem bone and time of death, cause of death and post-mortem treatment of a corpse. My work is also being used to understand the manner in which bone is resorbed during osteolytic diseases, such as periodontits and multiple myeloma.
