Dr Jacqueline Nguyen
Research Associate
College of Science and Engineering
I am an Australian Research Council DECRA Fellow at Flinders University and a Scientific Officer in Ornithology at the Australian Museum in Sydney. My research interests include the systematics, morphology, and evolution of fossil and modern birds, especially Australian songbirds. I am interested in using a combination of fossils, morphology, and DNA to gain a better understanding of the evolutionary history of birds, both living and extinct. I am currently based part-time at Flinders and part-time at the Australian Museum.
