Peter W. Lucas is a Research Professor of Anthropology specializing in biological anthropology with a focus on primate feeding ecology, dental function, and anatomical adaptations. His work bridges disciplines such as ecology, paleontology, and materials science.
Education: D.Sc. (2002) and Ph.D. (1980) from the University of London, and B.S. (1976) from University College London.
Research interests include primate diet and feeding behavior, dental morphology, and the evolution of food processing mechanisms. He develops tools for studying foraging mammals and explores how physical/chemical food properties influence dietary choices.
Publications include a seminal book on dental functional morphology and peer-reviewed articles on topics like primate food toughness, Paleolithic diets, and dental enamel structure.
