Angela Lieverse is a Professor in the Department of Archaeology & Anthropology at the University of Saskatchewan. She was elected to the Royal Society of Canada's College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists in 2016, recognizing her as an emerging leader in interdisciplinary research. Her work focuses on bioarchaeology, paleopathology, and hunter-gatherer adaptations in Siberia, Mongolia, and beyond.
Research interests include skeletal analysis of prehistoric populations, infectious disease histories (e.g., plague outbreaks), and dietary reconstruction through isotopic and morphological studies. She has pioneered studies on trauma patterns, musculoskeletal stress markers, and the interplay between environment and human health in ancient populations.
Her projects often involve multidisciplinary teams, such as the long-term Beyond the Bones of Baikal initiative studying Lake Baikal’s prehistoric communities. Key contributions include identifying the earliest known plague victims in Siberia and analyzing skeletal evidence of sled-pulling practices in ancient dogs.
Notable awards include the Royal Society of Canada’s recognition. Her work bridges archaeology, anthropology, and biology, offering insights into human resilience, cultural practices, and health challenges across millennia.
