About
I am currently researching for a PhD at the University of Birmingham, my thesis is entitled “Reconstructing the Permian Prince Charles Mountains (Antarctica) Floras”, and is co-supervised by Dr Jason Hilton at the University of Birmingham and Dr Stephen McLoughlin at the Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm. The project is focussed on 260-million-year-old silicified peats from East Antarctica. The exceptional detail preserved in the plant fossils of these peats provides a rare opportunity to reconstruct the structure of the Permian Antarctic forests which contributed biomass to the economically important coal deposits of the Southern Hemisphere. I have also worked on research into Jurassic turtles as well as fossil plants, and I am interested in a wide range of fossil groups.
