Professor Matthew Collins is a Niels Bohr Professor at the University of Copenhagen and the McDonald Chair of Palaeoproteomics at the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research at the University of Cambridge. We discuss his journey to becoming a leading academic in the field, and his interests within the discipline.
Within the world of biomolecular archaeology we track through palaeoproteomics and its applications, the integration of scientific disciplines into archaeology, and ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry).

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
