My work investigates craniofacial growth and development, using complex phenotyping methods. The research conducted in my lab combines expertise in human anatomy and geometric morphometrics to tackle both clinical and anthropological research questions. We have current ongoing projects looking at: cleft palate repair; childhood obesity and malocclusion; variation in patterns of facial growth and dental development; genotype-phenotype correlation analyses; the evolution of human facial growth. Students who have a general interests in human paleontology and forensic anthropology are also welcome to contact me.
