He is a specialist in virtual reconstruction of fossils and the statistical analysis of shape using geometric morphometrics. His work explores various aspects of developmental and evolutionary shape changes in living and fossil primates, with particular emphasis on the evolution of the face, teeth, bony labyrinth, and brain. One key research focus is the evolution of the brain and its endocranial imprint in the skull, where changes in endocranial shape observed in the hominin lineage may be linked to evolutionary changes in brain organization.
