Nadia Fröbisch

Prof. Nadia Fröbisch, Ph.D., is a faculty member at the Museum of Natural History, Leibniz Institute for Evolution and Biodiversity Research in Berlin, Germany. Her research integrates evolutionary biology, developmental biology, and paleontology to explore the origins of the vertebrate body plan.

• Focuses on evolution and development of fossil and extant amphibians
• Investigates tetrapod limb evolution and regenerative capacities in vertebrates
• Uses integrative approaches combining fossil records with modern vertebrate data

Her recent publications highlight trends in limb and fin regeneration, developmental gene activities, and comparative studies of fossil and extant species. Articles span disciplines including evolutionary developmental biology, paleontology, and vertebrate morphology, with subfields ranging from metamorphosis patterns to preaxial limb dominance.
