Christine De Brabandere, now Assistant Curator at Mountain Galleries in Banff, Alberta, completed her MA in History in 2016. While at Memorial, she conducted research on burial practices during the Black Death in England through an analysis of the reactions of contemporaries. She examined the Chronicle of Geoffrey Le Baker in view of archaeological research. 

Christine De Brabandere reflects on some historical similarities in human reactions to pandemics in an article in the Mountain Galleries Newsletter.
