Doris Sloan

Doris Sloan serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of California, Berkeley, and holds a Curatorial Associate position at the University of California Museum of Paleontology (UCMP).

Her research focuses on earth science disciplines critical to paleontological inquiry:

• Paleontology
• Geology
• Earth History
• Stratigraphy
• Fossil Research
• Evolutionary Biology

Based in the Valley Life Sciences Building, Professor Sloan contributes to UCMP's mission of fossil collection preservation and study. While the museum operates primarily as a research facility with public access limited to Cal Day open houses, select exhibits including a Tyrannosaurus rex remain viewable during regular building hours. Her curatorial work supports both academic research and public engagement in paleontological sciences.
