    Many fossil materials have embedded signals that enable aspects of the past to be reconstructed. These signals however can be altered or lost due to processes that take place once the fossil material is buried (diagenesis). Thus extracting reliable signals can be a major challenge. Here I present a new approach to better understanding diagenesis that I apply to bone.
