His contributions to exploration sciences have also resulted in advances in the field of applied exploration methods and the application of technology to exploration, excavation, and discovery. Berger is a fellow of the Royal Society of South Africa (FRSSAf) and a fellow of the Academy of Sciences of South Africa (ASSAf). Berger received a B.A. in anthropology from Georgia Southern University, his Ph.D. in paleoanthropology from the University of the Witwatersrand and became a postdoctoral research fellow in the university’s department of anatomy and human biology.
