Dr. Helen Kurki is a Professor of Anthropology in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Victoria's Faculty of Social Sciences. Her office is located in COR B211a, and she can be reached at hkurki@uvic.ca or by phone at 250-721-7045. Dr. Kurki holds a PhD from the University of Toronto and specializes in biological anthropology with a focus on skeletal biology and hominin functional anatomy. Dr. Kurki's research centers on morphological variation in recent humans and the evolutionary, cultural, and developmental mechanisms that have produced it, as a means of understanding the processes of hominin evolution and adaptability. Her primary methodological approach involves analyzing functional anatomy and skeletal biology in humans using both traditional osteological methods and 3D modeling of the skeleton. Her work spans skeletal growth and development, pelvic morphology, long bone growth patterns, and the evolutionary implications of skeletal variation across different human populations. Her recent publications demonstrate a consistent focus on skeletal morphology, particularly examining pelvic structure, limb bone development, and growth patterns across different human populations. Her research often bridges biological anthropology with evolutionary theory, exploring how skeletal adaptations relate to human evolution, locomotion, and reproductive biology. Dr. Kurki frequently collaborates with researchers in biological anthropology and has made significant contributions to understanding the biomechanical and evolutionary aspects of human skeletal development. Dr. Kurki teaches several anthropology courses including ANTH 251 Human Evolutionary Biology, ANTH 317 Quantitative Methods in Anthropological Research, ANTH 351 Human Origins, ANTH 454 Approaches to Human Bioarchaeology, and ANTH 551/651 Advanced Research Seminar in Ecology and Evolution. While specific grant information isn't provided in the available materials, her ongoing research program and regular publication record suggest active research funding supporting her work in skeletal biology and human evolution.
