NDSU Paleontology Lab – Undergraduate
NDSU researchers and students are making groundbreaking discoveries and changing what we understand about the world and its formation.
Lydia Tackett, associate professor of geology, is finding never-before discovered evidence of vertebrates in New Zealand that coincides with her research on predator-prey relationships in the late Triassic period.
“What’s most exciting is getting on the microscope and actually looking for the microfossils,” said Emily Jackson, a junior geology student from Fargo, North Dakota, working in the lab. “It’s really fun when you actually find something.”
