James O. Farlow studies dinosaurs and other extinct and living animals through the analysis of footprints (ichnology), skeletal proportions, and body form, using this evidence to reconstruct how these animals moved, ran, and lived. His work also extends to related topics such as alligator biology and biomechanics, and the paleontology of other vertebrates like carnivorans and crabs found in fossil deposits.
Publication output has been fairly steady over the last decade, averaging around 3-5 papers per year with a dip in 2024 followed by a rebound in 2025-2026.
