techniques to the examination of historical glass artifacts and to
the study of the history of glassmaking.

has collaborated with scientists, curators, conservators, and
archaeologists the world over, conducting chemical analyses and
other scientific investigations of historical glass objects. He has
published more than 190 works in various journals and symposia.
