Nicolas is a PhD student at Columbia Unversity in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory.

They are also a Graduate Student Fellow at the American Natural History Museum in the Division of Vertebrate Paleontology and the Richard Gilder Graduate School.

They study paleobiology, macroevolution, ecomorphology, and how we can use the fossil record to understand climate change in the past and present.

They also study the effects of long-term climate change on the evolution of body shape and size in camels, horses, antelopes, and other herbivorous terrestrial ungulates of the present and (relatively) recent past.
