This project investigates the evolution of jawed vertebrates, focusing on the placoderm Bothriolepis. By utilizing advanced imaging and modeling techniques, it aims to understand the feeding ecology and anatomical adaptations of these early vertebrates, challenging existing theories on the evolution of jaws and teeth.
The origin of jawed vertebrates represents one of the most dramatic changes in anatomy and genetics in animal evolutionary history, and it is the episode on which the whole of vertebrate biodiversity is now based.
It is widely thought to have resulted from an adaptive radiation, predicated on the key innovations of teeth and jaws, allowing jawed vertebrates to feed in ways that none had done before.
However, this entire thesis is now in disarray because of the discovery that teeth and jaws did…
