Research Summary

(inferred from publications by AI)

The researcher focuses on the application of human biological measurements and anthropometric techniques across diverse fields such as forensic anthropology, reconstructive facial surgery, medical imaging, dermatoglyphics, demographics, and preeclampsia research. These studies aim to identify physical traits like height and ethnicity using tools like percutaneous ultrasound, foot dimensions, hand morphology, airway structures, ergonomic measurements, and breast cancer treatment response patterns. The work bridges academic disciplines with practical societal applications, contributing to both scientific advancements and real-world problem-solving across forensics, surgery, medicine, demography, and social sciences.
