His research bridges functional anatomy, geology, and paleontology, focusing on form-function relationships in archosaurs (crocodylomorphs, birds) over deep time. He investigates the hepatic piston mechanism in crocodylomorphs and its evolutionary implications, integrating geological and paleoenvironmental data to understand adaptation to aquatic environments. Earlier work involved paleoseismic and stratigraphic studies of subduction zones in Sumatra, Oregon, and North Carolina, using microfossils to reconstruct coseismic subsidence and climate-driven coastal changes.
Recent publications highlight advancements in 3D anatomical imaging, respiratory system evolution, and the hepatic piston’s osteological correlates. His work spans comparative evolutionary morphology, paleoseismology, and interdisciplinary applications of medical imaging. He collaborates with institutions in Indonesia, the U.S., and Australia, with affiliations in geological sciences and marine hazards research.
Lab and team affiliations include Stony Brook University’s anatomical sciences division, Renaissance School of Medicine, and partnerships with institutions studying archosaur physiology and paleoenvironmental dynamics.
