vinny - i wudn't bother learning stuff about his field. The interview isn't going to expect you to know stuff on topucs that he has been researching his whole life. Spend your time (whatl ittle you have left) just going over stuff that you did last year

Yeah, and bringing up his research will not impress him - it'll probably just seem horribly sycophantic!

OK, Ill keep that in mind! Thanks!
Dr Norman is a palaeobiologist with an interest, I understand, in the mechanics of anatomy; how animals work as machines. He supervised me last year for evolution and behaviour.

As the others said, don't bother learning anything specifically about his field, just make sure you have a strong grasp of what you're expected to know by this stage. He's a really friendly and interesting guy so don't be too scared about it all!

And I'll give you bonus points if you manage to find his office first time... :tongue:
