Dr. Jisuo Jin is a Professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at Western University. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Saskatchewan in 1988, specializing in paleontology and brachiopod taxonomy. His research primarily focuses on the diversity patterns and evolutionary history of brachiopod faunas during the Ordovician and Silurian periods, particularly in epicontinental seas of North America. Dr. Jin's work addresses key ecological and evolutionary questions related to environmental controls on brachiopod communities, recovery after mass extinction events, and brachiopod biogeography. He has contributed significantly to our understanding of post-extinction recovery and the comparative study of brachiopod faunas across different geographical regions, including North America and South China. Dr. Jin actively supervises graduate students at M.Sc. and Ph.D. levels and offers courses in paleobiology, paleoecology, and advanced paleontology.
Streams include Archaeology and Bioarchaeology, and Sociocultural Anthropology.
