Andrei ASĂNDULESEI
CS II
Andrei Asăndulesei’s main research interest is prehistoric archaeology, with special focus on interdisciplinary investigations of prehistoric sites. He has been involved as member in several ethnoarchaeological or interdisciplinary-archaeological research projects, having as main tasks GIS spatial analyses and non-destructive prospecting. In 2014–2017 he coordinated a research project aimed at elaborating and applying a model of non-intrusive research in prehistoric sites from the region of Moldavia.

Andrei Asăndulesei’s main research interest is prehistoric archaeology, with special focus on interdisciplinary investigations of prehistoric sites.
He has been involved as member in several ethnoarchaeological or interdisciplinary-archaeological research projects, having as main tasks GIS spatial analyses and non-destructive prospecting.
Between 2014 and 2017 he coordinated a research project aimed at elaborating and applying a model of non-intrusive research in prehistoric sites from the region of Moldavia — Non-destructive approaches to complex archaeological sites. An integrated applied research model for cultural heritage management – PROSPECT.
