Principal Investigator
As an evolutionary biologist, I am interested in skeletal variation and what it can tell us about the evolutionary process. Variation is the raw material for evolution, but there's still a lot we don't know about it, including: (1) how variation within species is generated by developmental variation, (2) how skeletal variation impacts function, and ultimately (3), how it impacts the ability of the skeleton to evolve. In other words, my interests center on how as opposed to why evolution happens the way it does.

Vicki Tran - Honours student
Colton Unger - Masters student
Colton is a Masters Student in Department of Biology. He is interested in biological imaging techniques, correlated evolution and would one day like to be a pediatrician. Colton is investigating shape changes in the skulls of the Longshanks mouse and how Longshanks' longer limbs affect their cartilage health. When not in the lab, Colton can be found travelling or working with special needs children
