= Facial reconstruction
=In 2013, Wilkinson created a facial reconstruction of King Richard III, whose remains had been uncovered in a car park and positively identified using DNA.
In December that year, Wilkinson created a facial reconstruction of Saint Nicholas, working from anatomical knowledge, tissue depth data, and the latest reconstruction technology. From his skeletal remains, it was known that his broken nose had "healed asymmetrically, giving him a characteristic nose and rugged facial appearance".
In 2016, Wilkinson helped create facial reconstructions of Robert the Bruce, using a skull believed to have belonged to the Scottish king. Two versions were created, one standard one and another based on the belief that he had suffered from leprosy.
She is the author of several works on the subject of facial identification and depiction.
Awards
In 2012, she was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh and was awarded the 2013 RSE Senior Prize for Public Engagement. In 2014, she was elected a Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute (FRAI).
Wilkinson was awarded the Combined Royal Colleges medal of the Royal Photographic Society in 2016, for "outstanding contribution to the advancement of medical photography or medical imaging."
