Thompson, Tim: - Tim Thompson is a Professor of Applied Biological Anthropology in the School of Science & Engineering, Teesside University. Before coming to Teesside, he studied for his PhD at the University of Sheffield (Departments of Archaeology and Forensic Pathology) and was a Lecturer in Forensic Anthropology at the University of Dundee. Tim's main areas of research focus on the human body and how it changes, particularly in the modern context. Here, most of his research examines the effects of burning on the skeleton and the development of new analytical tools to examine this challenging biomaterial. He is also interested in the relationship between the biological and social body (again particularly in the modern context), and the role of forensic anthropology/ists in the world at large. He has recently published the book 'Human Identity and Identification' with Dr Rebecca Gowland (Durham University) and was previously senior editor for the book 'Forensic Human Identification'. He is currently Editor-in-Chief of the journal 'Science & Justice'. In 2014, Tim was awarded a prestigious National Teaching Fellowship by the Higher Education Academy for excellence in teaching and support for learning in higher education. He is also a Fellow of the Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences and the Royal Anthropological Institute, and is a practising forensic anthropologist who has worked at home and abroad in a variety of forensic contexts.
