His research is focused on the palaeobiology and evolution of echinoderms \u2014 the group that includes starfish and sea urchins. He studies early fossil echinoderms with the aid of X-ray computed tomography and computer simulations, shedding light on their anatomy, functional morphology and evolutionary relationships. He is also interested in the anatomy and development of modern species. Imran is currently funded by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.royalcommission1851.org\/\">Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851<\/a>.\r\n\r\nOutside of palaeontology, Imran is a keen supporter of Liverpool football club and the English cricket team. This probably explains his sometimes glum demeanour.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.oum.ox.ac.uk\/research\/imran_rahman.htm\">Imran\u2019s website<\/a>\r\n<h2>Contact Details:<\/h2>\r\nDr. Imran A.
