Kristin Mahlow is staff scientist and technical assistant of the µCT Laboratory of the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. Her personal research interests focus on the evolution of snakes, which she investigates using virtual segmentation and statistical analysis of the ossified and muscular anatomy. She also is very interested in developing new methods and applications in the µCT analysis of hard and soft tissues, as well as fossils.
Johannes Müller. Museum für Naturkunde, Leibniz-Institut für Evolutions- und Biodiversitätsforschung, Invalidenstr. 43, D-10115 Berlin, Germany Johannes.Mueller@mfn-berlin.de
Johannes Müller received both his Diploma (1999) and doctoral (2002) degree from the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Germany. From 2003 to 2005 he worked as a postdoc in paleontology and molecular biology at the University of Toronto, Canada. Since 2006 he has been at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin, and in 2010 became Professor of Paleozoology. His research interests involve the morphological and phylogenetic diversification of tetrapods, particularly reptiles, and he approaches this issue by integrating the study of fossils, genes, and living animals within a comparative phylogenetic framework.
