Human identification: An investigation of 3D models of paranasal sinuses to establish a biological profile on a modern UK population (2024)
Journal Article

Medical imaging is a valuable source for facilitating empirical research and provides an accessible gateway for developing novel forensic anthropological methods for analysis including 3D modelling. This is especially critical for the United Kingdom...

Sex estimation from virtual models: Exploring the potential of stereolithic (STL) 3D crania models for morphoscopic trait scoring (2023)
Journal Article

Modern computed tomography (CT) databases are becoming an accepted resource for the practice and development of identification methods in forensic anthropology. However, the utility of 3D models created using free and open-source visualization softwa...

Human identification: An investigation of 3D models of paranasal sinuses to establish a biological profile on a modern UK population (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Forensic anthropology aims to assist law enforcement with human identification by physically examining skeletal remains and assigning a biological profile using various metric and visual methods. These methods are crucial when a body undergoes extrem...

A step-by-step method for producing 3D crania models from CT data (2020)
Journal Article

Objectives: Modern computed tomography (CT) databases offer a valuable resource for obtaining skeletal reconstructions and contemporary population data. However, researchers may not utilise CT data due to limited funds for proprietary modelling softw... Read More about A step-by-step method for producing 3D crania models from CT data.

The utility of three-dimensional models of paranasal sinuses to establish age, sex, and ancestry across three modern populations: A preliminary study (2020)
Journal Article

Technological advances have furthered the development and understanding of trace materials such that DNA and fingerprints have become the foundation of human identification. However, when a body undergoes damage such as in cases of arson, these metho...

A novel method for producing 3D models of paranasal sinuses for forensic anthropology applications (2020)
Journal Article

Human identifications are made difficult when the remains are severely fragmented or burned. In cases such as these, alternative methods of identification become vital. Three-dimensional reconstructions have increased the potential for utilizing qual... Read More about A novel method for producing 3D models of paranasal sinuses for forensic anthropology applications.
