I conduct multiple research projects that directly relate to biological anthropology, biomedical science, mouse models in experimental biology, and quantitative methods using the R statistical language and Java-based ImageJ software. My scholarly output is generally focused on musculoskeletal systems relating to locomotion and the anatomy and histology of fibrous joints within the cranium that relate to feeding. I study skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems within specific functional contexts to understand important aspects of mammalian biology and evolution. Current research collaborations center around topics such as dietary adaptation and human evolution, the origins of primate-like arboreality, and the evolutionary significance of ape-like suspensory behavior.
