This researcher studies teeth and dental evolution in mammals and other vertebrates, including fossil primates, hadrosaur dinosaurs, and modern amniotes, often using comparative and quantitative methods to understand tooth structure, wear patterns, and dietary adaptation. The work draws on paleontology and evolutionary biology, linking fossil evidence to broader questions about how dental traits evolve and vary across species.
