个人简介
Professor Kakoulli received her Master’s Degree in conservation science at the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London and her Doctorate of Philosophy degree (D.Phil.) in archaeological sciences at the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art (RLAHA), University of Oxford, studying under the co-supervision of Prof. M. Tite and Prof. R.R.R. Smith. She has acquired further scientific experience through postdoctoral fellowships and scientific collaborations at the Opificio delle Pietre Dure in Florence, the National Centre for Scientific Research “Demokritos” in Greece, The Courtauld Institute of Art at the University of London and the Museum Scientific Laboratory of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Through her academic endeavours and training, she has produced rewarding cross over research between materials science and archaeological sciences, art history and conservation. Professor Kakoulli is an expert in the application of technology for the study of material culture from the macro to the nano-length scale and in the research and development of portable non-invasive, non-destructive multispectral imaging and spectroscopic systems for field applications. Prior to her appointment at UCLA in 2005, professor Kakoulli held previous academic positions at the Courtauld Institute in London and the University of Malta and was also the Manager of Artwork Diagnostic Technologies at Forth Photonics a research spin-off company specializing in multispectral imaging systems based in Athens, Greece.
Since her appointment at UCLA, professor Kakoulli has created the Archaeomaterials Group aiming to establish a dedicated research group at UCLA to support research in archaeological and conservation science and forensic analyses of anthropological interest. Professor Kakoulli is co-director of the Tarapacá Valley Archaeological Project in northern Chile and the project ByzanTiuM in Cyprus (Byzantine Technique and Materials) and she is a research collaborator in European and international programs. She is the author of various scientific articles in archaeological sciences and conservation and a member of national and international professional and scientific committees.
研究领域
Professor Kakoulli’s current research projects involve forensic trace evidence studies using optical and molecular biopsies (mainly engaging multispectral imaging spectroscopy; environmental scanning electron microscopy [VPSEM] coupled with energy dispersive energy spectroscopy [EDS] and Raman spectroscopy) of archaeological human remains aiming to understand the detrimental role of the depositional burial environment and to explore the environmental factors associated with taphonomic processes; the study of ancient painting techniques and materials in the Greco-Roman period and identify patterns of trade and cultural interactions between East and West, with emphasis on technology transfer and the synthesis of artificially produced pigments and colorants; and the development and application of non-invasive diagnostic multispectral imaging and spectroscopic techniques for the study of artifacts or archaeological, cultural and artistic value.
