David Ira Jablonski (born 1953) is an American professor of geophysical sciences at the University of Chicago. His research focuses upon the ecology and biogeography of the origin of major novelties, the evolutionary role of mass extinctions—in particular the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event—and other large-scale processes in the history of life. Education Jablonski was educated at Columbia University (earning his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1974) and completed his graduate work at Yale University (with his Master of Science degree in 1976 and Ph.D. in 1979). As an undergraduate he worked at the American Museum of Natural History in the City of New York, NY. Then continued postdoctoral research at the University of California, Santa Barbara and the University of California, Berkeley.[citation needed] In 1985 he was hired by the University of Chicago. Awards In 1988 the Paleontological Society awarded Jablonski with the Charles Schuchert Award, which is given to persons under 40 "whose work reflects excellence and promise in paleontology". In 2010 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences. - Edit

David Jablonski is a paleontologist who studies macroevolution, which takes place above the species level and encompasses large-scale patterns of evolution, mass extinction, diversification and the origin of evolutionary breakthroughs. His research emphasizes the integration of data from living and fossil organisms to study the origins and the fates of lineages and adaptations. He is a research associate of the Field Museum in Chicago and a former honorary research fellow of the Natural History Museum in London. A member of the National Academy of Sciences, Prof. Jablonski also is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the Paleontological Society and a was the recipient of 2017 Paleontological Society Medal. His other honors include a Guggenheim fellowship and the Paleontological Society's Charles Schuchert Award. Prof. Jablonski is co-editor of three books, The Encyclopedia of Paleontology (1979), Patterns and Processes in the History of Life (1987) and Evolutionary Paleobiology (1996) - Edit
