Jean-Christophe is a researcher at ORSTOM (Office Français de Recherche pour le Développement en Coopération). He has been working in the Pacific for the last 15 years, mainly in New Caledonia and Vanuatu. His main interest is on pottery production and how they can be archaeologically related to specific cultures. He has carried out excavations in French Polynesia (Tahiti and Huahine), New Caledonia (many sites), Fais (Caroline Islands), and in Germany (palaeolithic and neolithic sites). His publications are mainly focussed on pottery technology, and also survey research. Galipaud spent a sabbatical leave during 1995 at the Archaeozoology Laboratory writing up various research projects, including Tiwi (New Caledonia) faunal research. He is now involved in a three year programme of research on Vanuatu, in Santo and the Torres Islands. This coordinates research activities in biological anthropology, ethnography, archaeology, and ethno-archaeology.
