web page
Kristi Curry Rogers is a vertebrate paleontologist most interested in
the evolutionary history and paleobiology of dinosaurs. Her
research program is focused on understanding dinosaur anatomy,
evolution, and paleobiology. In addition to fieldwork and museum
research around the globe, she is particularly interested in the
evolutionary history of the long-necked dinosaurs known as sauropods.
Kristi utilizes bone histology to explore and reconstruct patterns of
the evolution of body size, growth rates, and life history strategies
among dinosaurs, their living relatives, and their modern
analogues. She is jointly appointed in the Geology
Department and teaches a selection of courses including:
(1) Biodiversity and Evolution (BIOL 270), (2) Comparative Vertebrate
Anatomy (BIOL 394); (3) Dinosaurs (GEOL 101); and (4) Vertebrate
Paleobiology and Evolution.
Current Courses:
BIOL170 Biodiversity & Evolution
Education:
BS Montana State University 1996
MSc Stony Brook University 1999
PhD Stony Brook University 2001
Research Interests:
Dinosaur anatomy and evolution, Vertebrate growth rates, Vertebrate
paleobiology
