About the Author: Ellen-Thérèse Lamm is currently the Paleontology Histology Lab Manager at the Museum of the Rockies. She works with institutions worldwide to catalog thousands of slides of fossil tissue structure. Blending discovery, art, and science, Ellen-T. also produces award-winning photomicrographs, some featured on the covers of technical publications. The publication of Bone Histology of Fossil Tetrapods - Advancing Methods, Analysis and Interpretation in 2013 by UC Press is one of her career highlights.

His work is heavily influenced by mid-century design, architecture and fashion which can be easily seen in his use of color palettes and choice of subject matter.
