Andrew
Farke is a Ph.D. candidate in anatomical sciences at Stony Brook University, and
he received his B.Sc. in geology from South Dakota School of Mines and
Technology. His research primarily focuses on the evolution of the paranasal
sinuses in both horned dinosaurs and horned mammals. However, he also maintains
interests in ceratopsid systematics and functional morphology, as well as
paleopathology. Andrew is particularly interested in the evolution of large
cranial size and its implications for functional morphology. He has participated
in fieldwork in Wyoming, Utah, Montana, and South Dakota, with his most recent
field emphasis in the Upper Cretaceous of northern Madagascar. Andrew serves on
the student committee and information management committee for the Society of
Vertebrate Paleontology, and is on the editorial and advisory boards for the
Paleoportal website.
