Lecturer in Anthropology and Prehistoric Ecology at the course in Environmental and Natural Sciences, and lecturer in Anthropology at the courses in Geological Sciences and Physiotherapy.
My research focuses on human-environment interactions from prehistory onwards. I deal with the ecology and behavior of Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, the climate/environmental changes that have occurred during the last few hundred thousand years and the onset of the process of domestication of animals.
