How to Find a T-Rex

Dr. Timothy Rowe of the University of Texas discusses the long process of unearthing dinosaur fossils.

Dr. Rowe's primary research focuses on the evolution and development of the vertebrate skeleton. This work is directed mostly at the early history of mammals and their extinct relatives, and on the history of birds and their extinct relatives among Dinosauria. An important tool for this research is high-resolution X-ray computed tomography, which has become a secondary research focus. This breakthrough technology permits the non-destructive inspection of internal structure in even the smallest and most delicate of vertebrate specimens. In collaborative research with scientist from many countries, Dr. Rowe is scanning and studying the anatomy of some of the world's most significant fossils.
