WHO AM I?Evan Doughty is a 6th year Phd Candidate within the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of California, Los Angeles. He is a vertebrate paleontologist with a strong interest in investigating how coevolution, competition, and environmental factors drive inter- and intraguild dynamics in fossil and extant assemblages. His dissertation currently focuses on discerning the dynamics underlying the distribution of body mass and other functional traits in large mammalian predators (e.g. canids, felids, creodonts, etc.) and their presumed large herbivore prey (e.g., ungulates, "condylarths", etc.) throughout the North American Cenozoic.
