American paleontologist
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)
[15] 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 .[

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".
[16] In 2010, he was elected to the
National Academy of Sciences .
[17]
In 2017, the Paleontological Society awarded him their most prestigious prize, the
Paleontological Society Medal
