My research interests
I am an evolutionary anthropologist in the broad sense, with interests in primatology, functional morphology, evolutionary biology, biogeography, ecology, palaeontology and human origins. My work applies an evolutionary perspective and focuses on unpicking the complex relationships between different aspects of and actors in evolutionary systems. I am working on two main projects at present, one using morphometrics to explore the evolution of primate locomotion and another applying niche modelling to gain a better understanding of primate distributions, ecology and landscape use. Both have an evolutionary flavour to them, and ultimately I hope to use the insights gained from these and related projects to help reconstruct human evolution.
In addition to my primary work on evolutionary anthropology and primatology, I am
