David John Gregory
David John Gregory worked as an analytical chemist in the pharmaceutical industry for six years. Thereafter he studied for a Bachelors of Science in archaeology at Leicester University. This was followed by a Masters degree in Maritime Studies at St. Andrews University. He obtained his PhD from Leicester University in 1996 (Formation processes in underwater archaeology: A study of the deterioration of archaeological materials in the marine environment). Since 1996 he has been employed as a researcher at the National Museum of Denmark's Centre for Maritime Archaeology researching into the development of robust methods of managing archaeological sites on land and underwater in situ.
