Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jessica R. Scott investigates the paleodiet and dental microwear of ancient species, focusing on reconstructions of herbivore diets from fossil evidence. Her recent work includes the paleodiet reconstruction of *Procapra przewalskii* from the Qinghai Lake Basin during the Early and Middle Holocene, published in 2024. Additionally, she has examined the dental microwear of bovids from the Pliocene-Pleistocene transition in the lower Awash Valley, Ethiopia, with a publication in 2025. Scott's research network includes collaborators Peter S. Ungar, Angelia Kirkpatrick, and Leah K Fehringer, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 17, 26 total publications, and 1,141 total citations.
