We advocate for an open access of scientific results and research. To do so, we provide links to download may of ours paper for free (in publisher postprint or author postprint versions). We are also in the process of making all our datasets available (via platforms such as Data Dryad, Morphobank, or directly from our lab's Dropbox account). Finally, the data for marine reptiles is also added to immediately on the Paleobiology Database and, for recent papers only, on Zoobank.
​For any inquiry, please do not hesitate to contact us.
