Roberto Rozzi

Dr. Roberto Rozzi is a DFG-funded Postdoc Researcher at the Museum of Natural History Leibniz Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity Research in Berlin, Germany. His work focuses on evolutionary patterns in insular mammals, particularly bovids, and integrating paleoecology with modern conservation strategies.

• Research Focus: Evolution and extinction of insular mammals across Mediterranean, Asian, and American islands
• Specialties: Plio-Pleistocene mammal taxonomy, biochronology, and the island rule
• Methodologies: Paleoenvironmental reconstruction, multiproxy analysis, and size variation studies
• Secondary Interests: Enhancement of natural history collections and interdisciplinary approaches to taxonomy

His articles reveal a recurring emphasis on island biogeography, adaptive evolution, and ecological drivers like predatory release. Collaborations span global institutions, with publications in high-impact journals such as PNAS and Journal of Biogeography.
