Dr. Zachary Morris is a morphologist with a focus on the developmental mechanisms generating patterns of disparity in both the fossil record and among living organisms. His research combines approaches from paleontology, comparative anatomy, and experimental embryology to understand how the skull has been modified across vertebrate evolution. He has trained with curators at several major museums, including the UC Berkeley Museum of Paleontology, the University of Texas Museum of Earth History, the Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology, and the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History. His current works includes describing soft-tissue in the roof of the mouth of tyrannosaurs and early birds and testing the developmental mechanisms generating reptile diversity.
