Suzanne Pilaar Birch is Associate Professor, Anthropology and Geography; Director of the Quaternary Isotope Paleoecology Lab; Director of the Center for Archaeological Sciences; and Coordinator of the Georgia Museum of Natural History Internship Program at the University of Georgia.
Her research is focused on human adaptation and resilience to climate change and natural resource unpredictability in prehistory, and how our understanding of past human response to environmental change informs current thinking about these issues. She combines archaeology and biogeochemistry to investigate changes in diet, mobility, and settlement systems in the period spanning the end of the last ice age to the arrival of farming.
Her other research interests include the initial domestication of livestock, diffusion of domesticates across Eurasia, the transition from hunting to herding, seasonality and human mobility, multispecies archaeology, and advancing methodologies in zooarchaeology and stable isotope analysis. She is an active advocate of open access publishing and online data and research sharing. She co-founded and moderate the blog TrowelBlazers, which highlights women in the fields of archaeology, paleontology, and geology. She is also an editor-in-chief of the open access journal for Quaternary science, Open Quaternary.
