Biological mortality bias in diaphyseal growth of contemporary children: Implications for paleoauxology

This paper uses a contemporary population to test the presence and magnitude of mortality bias in long bone growth and reflects on its possible presence in past populations

Mortality bias in growth

The purpose of this project is to reflect on the likely magnitude of mortality bias in growth in the past. Are archaeological skeletal samples of juveniles representative of their living peers?

Estimating the juvenile biological profile

The purpose of this project is to develop and test methods for estimating various parameters of the juvenile biological profile for use in both bioarchaeological and forensic contexts
