Pascale Gerbault

Position:	Research Associate in Human Evolutionary Genetics
Overview:	Pascale graduated in Biology before pursuing her interests in population genetics and human genetic evolution. Her PhD research project considered integrating archaeological, climatic and genetic data to answer genetic evolutionary histories using simulation models. She is now part of the Leverhulme funded Hunter-Gatherer Resilience project (http://www.adapting.org.uk/index.html), looking at demographic and adaptation histories of hunter-gatherer populations from the Philippines and the Congo.
