Paul Szpak is a Professor and Canada Research Chair in the Department of Anthropology, Trent University, Peterborough, Canada. He earned his BA from McMaster University, where he conducted stable isotope analyses on archaeological fauna from the northeast Pacific and Pleistocene mammoths. His PhD, from Western University, used stable isotope analysis to better understand the impacts of fertilizers in the ancient Andes and to assess animal management practices on the north coast of Peru. Szpak held SSHRC, Killam, and Banting postdoctoral fellowships at the University of British Columbia where he shifted his research to focus on palaeoecology of Arctic marine ecosystems. Since 2016, he has been a faculty member and Canada Research Chair at Trent University. He directs the Trent Environmental Archaeology Lab and conducts research using a range of stable isotope techniques throughout the world, but continuing to focus on the Andes and North American Arctic.
