Anna Davies-Barrett's seminar, "Who smokes anymore? Investigating past impacts of tobacco consumption using osteoarchaeological and biomolecular approaches" is now available! youtu.be/9yG3jDqCtfg

A lovely blog by @nihilisttacos on John Ottley from Leicester Cathedral as part of the TobaccoHealthHistory project. Provides an insight into what we can see from the #skeleton. Also check out a previous blog by University of Leicester Archaeological Services on John's manslaughter scandal ulasnews.com/2022/07/29/lei…

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to our fantastic team members and collaborators. You are fantastic @DrDaviesB Dr Maia Casna 🐝💀🍉 she/her Judith López Aceves @mariaserranor Anita Radini Biancamaria Bonucci

Very happy to be presenting early #metabolomic results UKAS York 2024. Discussing the risk that tobacco use was for inflammation on the skeleton for rural communities

Fantastic #tobacco paper on #SPME potential by Judith López Aceves aylt #UKAS2024. Well done 👏🏼

We are hiring (again)! Who doesn’t want to join this superstar team (if we may say so ourselves)? ✨👌 We are looking for a second osteoarchaeologist to collaborate with us in interpreting and disseminating the weird and rich data we are collecting:👇 jobs.le.ac.uk/vacancies/9853…

Recently the TobaccoHealthHistory team were excited to attend the book launch of The Material Body! Their open-access chapter focuses on identity and tobacco-use in Industrial era England: manchesterhive.com/display/978152…

Excellent work by Dr Maia Casna 🐝💀🍉 she/her an affiliate of the TobaccoHealthHistory project. We are currently investigating the relationship between #tobacco use and sinusitis, so valuable stuff here 👇

Yesterday, the team visited Kori Filipek at Derby to sample post-med sailors as part of our collaboration to understand past #tobacco use, staining and damage to teeth. Tobacco pipe use, became strongly associated with sailor identity in this period. #archaeology #history

Another collaborative paper between Network members: Dr Maia Casna 🐝💀🍉 she/her's excellent PhD research with a little input from @DrDaviesB on behalf of the TobaccoHealthHistory project!

Leicester Bioarchs on tour. Visit to The Chester House Estate to see School of Archaeology & Ancient History excavations. Lots of great finds and the weather was glorious. Thank you for hosting! Judith López Aceves Alvaro Gonzalez @DrDaviesB Chris Chinnock, Jo Appleby

Welcome to Valentina Perrone, PhD to the THH project. Valentina is carrying out research on cementum analysis on the teeth of known smokers in collaboration with Nick Jakubovics, Richard Holliday and Team. We are looking forward to seeing the result!

Happy to be at the #BRS2024 with a poster on archaeometabolomics of bone! If you are interested in old bones, tobacco use and metabolomics, come see poster 43!

👇 Dr Jo Appleby's amazing research on ageing and archaeology is highlighted in the Int J. of Paleopathology👴🧓 check it out

Amazing interdisciplinary talk on creating an index of Oro-dental disease which was well received at the Paleopathology Association, well done @DrDaviesB.

Congratulations to @DrDaviesB for winning the Early Career Prize at the EuroPPA 2024 Leiden presenting our work on creating an Oro-health index for palaeopath. Also to project collaborator and friend Maia Casna 🐝💀🍉 she/her for also winning on her work on respiratory disease in Dutch groups 👏🏼🥳

📌Dr Sarah Inskip talks about the use of an "index of oro-dental disease" to investigate the impacts of tobacco consumption on oral health #BABAO2024 #DentalAnthropology

We are very excited to share our research showing the potential of #archaeometabolomics to reveal past phenotypes, here #tobacco use. We hope to next track how this relates to tobacco use rates and disease prevalence in the past! Watch this space. #archaeology #archsci #History

This week, we kicked off a new term of our Intersectional Bodies reading group (led by resident oddkin, Kevin)! We'll explore different ways of thinking about and with teeth in the past. 📚🦷 Hopefully, there'll be lots to chew on and get our teeth into. (It had to be said).

All set up for the Lifelong #Ageing fair with The Sciences of Ageing and the Culture of Youth in Lambeth Town Hall. We are discussing ageing archaeological skeletons and differences in ageing experiences between populations
