Victoria Megan Arbour is a Canadian evolutionary biologist and palaeontologist working as the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada postdoctoral fellow at the University of Toronto and Royal Ontario Museum.[1][2][3]
Arbour analyzes fossils and creates 3-D computer models. She named the possible pterosaur Gwawinapterus from Hornby Island, and a partial ornithischian dinosaur from Sustut Basin, and has participated in the naming of the ankylosaurs Zuul,[4][5] Zaraapelta,[4] Crichtonpelta,[6] Ziapelta.[7]
Early life and education
Born in about 1984, Arbour calls Halifax, Nova Scotia, her hometown.[8] Her mother, a math teacher, and father, a soil scientist, supported her science interests.[9] Arbour completed a B.Sc. Honours Thesis supervised by Milton Graves, An ornithischian dinosaur from the Sustut Basin, British Columbia, Canada, and graduated from Dalhousie University in 2006.[10] She completed her master's thesis, Evolution, biomechanics, and function of the tail club of ankylosaurid dinosaurs (Ornithischia: Thyreophora) in 2006, and her Ph.D. thesis, Systematics, evolution, and biogeography of the ankylosaurid dinosaurs, in 2008, both advised by paleontologist Philip Currie at the University of Alberta.[11]
Career
She is the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada postdoctoral fellow at the Royal Ontario Museum and University of Toronto.[12]
From 2014 to 2016 she was a postdoctoral researcher working jointly out of the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences and North Carolina State University.[7][13]
Arbour primarily studies dinosaurs in the group Ankylosauria, including biomechanical analyses of tail clubs.[6][14] Arbour has studied microfossils from Nova Scotia.[11] She has also named the possible pterosaur Gwawinapterus from Hornby Island, and a partial ornithischian dinosaur from Sustut Basin, both locations in British Columbia.[11] She has participated in the naming of the ankylosaurs Zuul,[4][5][15] Zaraapelta,[4] Crichtonpelta,[16], Ziapelta,[7][17][18] as well as resurrecting Dyoplosaurus,[19] and publishing an extensive phylogenetic analysis on the interrelationships of Ankylosauridae.[16]
According to Brian Alary of the University of Alberta, "She’s contributed to history-making research by analyzing fossils and creating 3-D computer models, developed course materials and taught 35,000 students at a time through the Dino 101 MOOC."[8] Philip Currie credits Arbour for involving the paleontology discipline with the University of Alberta's "Women in Scholarship, Engineering, Science & Technology", making study of dinosaurs more appealing to women.[8]
