According to Wikipedia, Michelle Alexander is a bioarchaeologist with an interest in multi-faith societies and is Senior Lecturer in Bioarchaeology at the University of York. Research Alexander specialises in the study of medieval diet through stable isotope analysis. She was part of the research team for the European Research Council funded project The Archaeology of Regime Change: Sicily in Transition, which explored the changes in population in medieval Sicily. She is part of the research team for the Urban Ecology Zanzibar project. She is project lead for the Faith in Food, Food in Faith Network funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council. She is part of the research team for ArchSci2020, which explores new scientific techniques to understand the circumpolar world. She is Co-Investigator on Landscapes of Conquest, which seeks to understand relationships between people, castles and landscapes in medieval Iberia. Alexander has published or co-authored work on millet in diets in early medieval Italy, medieval diet in Leopoli-Cencelle, medieval diet in agrarian Apulia,
