Biography
I am a PhD candidate working with Dr. Jack Horner here at the MOR. My PhD concerns the stratigraphy of the Hell Creek Formation, Montana, and equivalent units, using sequence and biostratigraphy to interpret their relative ages. I specialise in field paleontology, which is one of the reasons I wanted to come to the MOR: it has one of the biggest dinosaur fieldwork programmes in the world! I also pursue research projects in dinosaur paleobiology: another of the specialisations of  the MOR, and a big reason why I wanted to come and work here with Dr. Horner. Dinosaur paleobiology is the investigation into how dinosaurs lived, and I think that is the most interesting thing there is. For more info on my research and fieldwork, check out my webpage: http://www.denverfowler.com.
