My lab is broadly focused on questions about dinosaur evolution, from their origins in the Triassic through to the end-Cretaceous extinction event. We regularly conduct fieldwork across the US, in the Western Interior as well as along the East Coast. Previous expeditions have visited Madagascar, Chile, and Zimbabwe.
Current research foci include:
Vertebrate microfossil bonebeds: their composition, formation, and paleoecology
Dinosaur temporal and geographic distributions, and fossil sampling
Faunal, paleoecological, and taxonomic studies in the Morrison, Cloverly, Judith River formations, as well as Cretaceous formations along the US East Coast
