Thesis Title: Locomotor function and the evolution of the primate pelvis
About
My current research centers on the evolution of three-dimensional pelvic shape in primates, and its relationship to locomotion. In this work, I combine experimental (in vitro strain gauge methods) and comparative approaches to address questions related to pelvic structural mechanics and the evolution of pelvic locomotor adaptations in a broad taxonomic sample of primates.
