Dr. Conroy is professor of anatomy & anthropology at Washington University Medical School, St. Louis. He has worked in nearly every epoch of primate and human fossil history and has conducted paleoanthropological research in many countries around the world including Ethiopia, Namibia, South Africa, Kenya, Argentina, and Pakistan. In 1991 his research team discovered the first (and thus far only) fossil evidence of prehuman apelike primates ever found in sub-equatorial Africa. He has also applied state-of-the-art computer imaging techniques to investigate anatomical structures in extinct primates and fossil humans.
