Biography
Michael Kowalski holds a bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of Manchester and a postgraduate diploma in textile technology from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. Since retiring in 2016 after a successful career in the computer industry, he has devoted much of his time to the study of the Shroud of Turin. He has produced two documentary videos on this topic which detail the controversy surrounding the 1988 radiocarbon dating of the Shroud and outline some of the scientific evidence that shows that the Shroud is considerably older than the result of that dating test. He is editor of the British Society for the Turin Shroud newsletter and is a member of the Shroud Science Group, a private, international forum of Shroud researchers.
