David Jablonski is a Professor in the Department of Geophysical Sciences at the University of Chicago. His research interests include evolutionary biology, macroevolution, paleobiology, and evolutionary paleoecology, particularly focusing on marine invertebrates. His work examines the end-Cretaceous mass extinction and the resulting shifts in functional diversity and configuration of modern marine biota. He has published numerous articles on adaptive traits in bivalve clades, ecological structure, intrinsic extinction vulnerabilities, and diversity in Phanerozoic marine bivalves. Jablonski’s research sheds light on how ecological and evolutionary dynamics shape the history and diversification patterns of marine life, often employing case studies of bivalves to illustrate broader evolutionary processes. His contributions have been acknowledged in several academic publications, reflecting his significant impact on the field of paleobiology and evolutionary studies.
