(01) In the shoes of a bioanthropologist

Workshop presented by: University of Geneva - Anthroposcope

Languages: French and English

Discover the job of a bioanthropologist by putting yourself in the shoes of the specialists who study past societies by analysing human remains found in archaeological contexts. It is by observing the skeleton that it is possible to attribute a biological identity - such as sex, age or stature - to an individual. This workshop, which usually takes place as part of the anthroposcope, brings together bioanthropologists and students keen to share and promote their profession.

Workshop led by: Dr. Jocelyne Desideri (lecturer, archaeologist and bioanthropologist - ARCAN, Biology Section, Faculty of Science, University of Geneva - Anthroposcope, Scienscope, Faculty of Science, University of Geneva)
