Carson's research focuses on striptease and other sexual performance in Cold War Chile. She contends that they are critical to both challenging and reinforcing gender and sexuality in state and society. Focusing on 1950-1990, Carson traces the continuities and ruptures in Chile's long history of sexual performance under democracy and dictatorship, exposing sexual performance's emancipatory power as well as its heteronormative functions.

In this video, Carson examines cabaret show books, photographs, business advertisements, nude magazines, press coverage, state and city level laws regulating such businesses, and personal testimonies to show that sexual performance in Chile transcends both state level politics and changes in political regimes, and that striptease was imbued with different degrees of respectability and shame at different historical moments.

Corey's research focuses on the effects that cultural relationships have on population structure and interaction during the Postclassic period (AD 900-1520) in Mexico. Using dental morphological features as a proxy for genetic information, his research compares the biological distinctions between sacrificial victims by examining geographic distance, migration history, trade, and political interaction. The research investigates these relationships at the group and individual levels. 

In this video, Corey discusses the archaeobiological information provided by the skulls from the Templo Mayor, located in the Aztec capital city of Tenochtitlan. Using available cranial/dental data among the sacrificial victims, he evaluates how war and status effect the treatment of human remains in the Late Postclassic period (AD 1300-1520) at Tenochtitlan.
