Undergraduate Researchers

Treva Hook

Treva Hook

Treva Hook is an undergraduate student at GW studying Biological Anthropology and Biology. She has been working in the PAPER lab and has developed interests in bone histology and forensic anthropology. She is most interested in the 3D comparative osteology project in the lab, which works to curate a large osteology collection.

Maya Robilotta

Maya Robilotta

Maya Robilotta is an undergraduate student at GW where she studies Biological Anthropology and Archeology, with a strong interest in Forensic Anthropology. Her work in the PAPER lab has allowed her to explore and enhance this interest and has grown her knowledge of human osteology, along with the opportunity for future research.

Sloan Fridrich

Alum - Sloan Fridrich

Sloan Fridrich was an undergraduate studying biological anthropology and human anatomy at GWU. Their interests in the PAPER lab include faunal analysis, comparative osteology, and bone markings with overall interests in forensic anthropology and paleoanthropology. Sloan aided in creating a 3D skeleton online database, and worked on a 3D geometric morphometric study of the ecomorphology of the bovid radioulna.

Emily LaBrasciano

Alum - Emily LaBrasciano

Emily LaBrasciano was an undergraduate student who came into GW to study literature but quickly switched into biological anthropology. She developed an interest in osteology through research at the PAPER lab. She worked on comparative faunal analysis with the end goal of creating a 3D library of comparative skeletons.

Paulette Ma

Alum - Paulette Ma

As an undergraduate at GW, Paulette was a major contributer to the 3D comparative osteology collection project, scanning many of the collections in the SEH Paleo lab.

Jane Meiter

Alum - Jane Meiter

As an undergrad, Jane was a major contributer to the 3D comparative osteology collection project, spending many hours in the NMNH Museum Support Center osteology collections.

Sophie Muir

Alum - Sophie Muir

Sophie Muir was an undergraduate student at GW where she studied anthropology. She worked in the PAPER lab, which allowed her to explore interests in comparative osteology, 3D scanning, and scientific communication. She was a part of the research team working on creating a collection of 3D comparative skeletons and an accompanying website.

Olivia Poole

Alum - Olivia Poole

As an undergraduate student at GW, Olivia studied biology with a personal interest in Chinese language and literature. Her interests within the PAPER lab included comparative osteology, faunal analysis, and 3D scanning. Olivia helped build the lab’s comparative osteology collection by curating various skeletons including baboons, cows, and a Shetland pony. She worked on a 3D geometric morphometrics project studying the ecomorphology of bovid radioulna.
