South Dakota Mines Senior Research Advisees:

Ryan Bozer (BS 2019) Comparing biodiversity records of marine predators of the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway of iDigBio and the PBDB

I enjoy research collaborations with students and colleagues both on and off campus. Taxa and tools vary by project and include examination of anthropogenic changes to coastal marine ecosystems, faunal surveys of threatened habitats, systematic studies, modeling of ancient ecosystems, and museum collections improvement projects.
