Research
Vertebrate Palaeontology and Evolutionary Biology
My research aims to:
(1) Understand the biology and diversity of extinct animals
(2) Reconstruct the evolution of form and function through deep time
​
My most recent projects have focused on fossil reptiles (e.g., dinosaurs, pterosaurs), as well as living reptiles and birds. I use a multifaceted approach to answer research questions, which involves comparative anatomy, computed tomography (CT) based imaging, digital visualisation, 3D modelling, and biomechanical simulation.
​
I am particularly interested in vertebrate feeding. I (1) reconstruct the feeding mechanism and diets of extinct vertebrates and (2) study the evolution of key innovations in vertebrate feeding system.
