LONG
M. Anne Katzenberg is an internationally recognized leader in the study of past environments and their interactions with humans by means of isotopic analyses applied to bone and other materials. She reconstructs past human lifeways using stable isotope analyses of bone samples and other materials. She is also a talented osteologist and has specialized in the areas of pathology and forensic studies. The work for which she is principally cited focuses on expressions of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes in osteological materials, human and other, and she has also used strontium as a paleodietary indicator. Her work addresses a range of historical and prehistorical problems in different parts of the world, including the Lake Baikal area of Siberia and across the Americas. She has been a pioneer in studying the effects of nursing and weaning on chemical signatures in infants' bones and in identifying isotopic variation in pathological bone.
