Our research in field archaeology and forensic taphonomy involves collaborations with leading national and international organisations.
Our research
The UCLan Research Centre for Field Archaeology and Forensic Taphonomy works with researchers from across the world. Our expertise is in primary data collection and investigation.
Every year archaeological field research takes place all over the world, particularly in the UK, USA and the Mediterranean. The work that we do has assisted with the identification of human remains in Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, the Philippines and Ukraine. We provide bespoke training for the International Committee of the Red Cross.
We focus on the methodological, pedagogic, and transformative aspects of original primary data as tools for innovative science and social impact. We do collaborative research in archaeology, anthropology, computing, forensic taphonomy, criminalistics, and genetics, working in the areas of Citizenship, Society and Justice.. Our work in archaeology is linked closely to the heritage sector and our work in forensic science is central to the Universitys justice agenda.
