}}Turi Emma King (born 1969)[1] is a Canadian-British Professor of Public Engagement, and a Reader in Genetics and Archaeology at the University of Leicester.[5][6][7] She is best known for her work in "cracking one of the biggest forensic DNA cases in history"[8] during the exhumation and reburial of Richard III of England.[4]

Education and early life

Dr. King was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.[8] She studied at the University of British Columbia and worked on archaeological sites in Canada, Greece, and England[5]{{When|date=September 2018}}, before moving to the University of Cambridge[8] to read Archaeology and Anthropology. There she was awarded a Bachelor of Arts degree.{{when|date=March 2018}} She won a scholarship to study for a Master of Science degree in Molecular Genetics at the University of Leicester, gaining a First with Distinction.{{when|date=March 2018}} In 2000, she started her doctoral research as a Wellcome Trust Prize Student at the University of Leicester, specializing "in tracing migration patterns by using genetics."[8]

Her award-winning thesis on the relationship between British surnames and Y-chromosomal haplotypes[9][10] was published in 2007, and eventually formed the basis of the book Surnames, DNA and Family History, which she co-authored with David Hey and George Redmonds.[11][2][12]

Career and research

Dr. King's research[6][7] initially centred around genetics, genetic genealogy, and surnames, and using aspects of human DNA such as the Y chromosome to track past human migrations.[6] Her work has included tracing "the signal of the Viking migration to the north of England", resulting in her appearance in Michael Wood's The Great British Story – A People's History on BBC Two,[10] and in Michael Wood's Story of England. Her research themes involve combinations of molecular genetics with history, forensics, archaeology, geography, and genetic genealogy.

It was this background that made her ideally placed to lead the genetic analysis[13] involved during the exhumation and reburial of Richard III of England,[14] confirming the identity of remains discovered underneath a Leicester car park through the use of descendant DNA.[15][13]

Public engagement

As Professor of Public Engagement, Dr. King regularly undertakes public speaking at universities,{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} schools and public events such as the Cheltenham Science Festival,[16] the Moscow Science Festival {{Citation needed|date=September 2018}}, a Congressional Breakfast on Capitol Hill[17]{{Citation needed|date=September 2018}}, the Galway Science and Technology Festival,[18] and the Queen's Lecture in Berlin.[19] She advises on numerous television programmes and provides genetic expertise to authors such as Patricia Cornwell,[20][21] Edward Glover, and David McKie.[22]

King has also appeared in a number of television and radio documentaries as an expert in genetic genealogy, forensics, and/or ancient DNA.[23][24][25][26]

Current projects

The following is a list of projects Dr. King is either heading or is involved with:

  • The King's DNA: whole genome sequencing of Richard III[5]
  • What's in a Name? Applying Patrilineal Surnames to Forensics, Population History, and Genetic Epidemiology[5][31]
  • HALOGEN (History, Archaeology, Linguistics, Onomastics, and GENetics)[5][32]
  • The Irish Surnames Project[5]{{Citation needed|date=September 2018}}
  • The Mary Jane Kelly Project, dedicated to confirming the identity of Jack the Ripper's final confirmed victim.[5][33]

Awards and honours

In 2016, Dr. King was appointed an honorary fellow of the British Science Association in recognition of her contribution to public engagement in science.[34] She gave the J. B. S. Haldane prize lecture of The Genetics Society in 2018, at the Royal Institution, London.[35]

Personal life

Dr. King is married with four children.{{citation needed|date=August 2018}} It can be assumed that she has a good relationship with her father, as she relayed a secret message to him during the 2013 press conference announcing the findings concerning Richard III's remains; though sworn to secrecy by the University on the findings until the announcement, when she went onstage, Dr. King wore "a particular strand of pearls" to let her father watching from Vancouver immediately know that the DNA had been a match.[18]
