Background
I am currently a postgraduate student at the Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, University of the Witwatersrand (Wits), South Africa. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Cape Town in 2006, specialising in Biodiversity & Evolutionary Biology and Zoology, before making the move to Wits at the beginning of 2007 to complete an Honours degree in Palaeontology (in South Africa Honours is a separate course). My main interest lies in the evolution of early synapsids, and at the moment I am working on the skull morphology of a carnivorous group known as the Gorgonopsia, under the supervision of Prof. B.S. Rubidge and Dr N.F. Abdala. Prof. Rubidge and I are also involved in a project with Dr P. Tafforeau of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), France.
