KINSEY M. BROCK, Ph.D.

I am a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Biology at the University of California, Berkeley sponsored by Dr. Ian Wang (UC Berkeley, USA) and Dr. Panayiotis Pafilis (National & Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece). My research interests are primarily aimed at identifying correlates and mechanisms of phenotypic evolution in reptiles, with a particular emphasis on color polymorphism.

​

My postdoc research is focused on the evolution of repeated phenotypes in color polymorphic island lizards. My fieldwork largely takes places in the Cycladic islands where I spend a lot of my time chasing Aegean wall lizards. Much of my work is at the intersection of ecology, evolution, phylogenetics, biogeography, and art!
