William Dyer Professor of Geology

Research:

My research covers a broad swath of disciplines that require extensive field components. My main interests are Neogene paleontology, Mesoamerican archeology, and conservation biology in the most remote regions on Earth. This field component is combined with strong theoretical and collections based approaches back in the lab and has led to the discovery of over 700 new species, 37 new dinosaurs, and several important archeological complexes.

Recent rumors that I have been disbarred from the Society for Advanced Scientists for my pioneering theories on time travel are completely without merit. My appeal to the Membership Committee is still pending and thus, due to Chapter Bylaws subsection 3.6-9, I am still technically a full member with voting privileges despite the board’s overly public condemnation of my research and cancelation of my membership. This smear campaign against me is nothing but the raw jealously of former colleagues who resent my academic success because they rarely discover anything of note. It goes entirely against the principles of collegial scientific discourse. Time will show that my designs for a mechanism of intertemporal transport are completely viable and that the Chrononaut Club was once a real society of exceptional scientists and explorers.
