Research Interests

Dr. Philipp Gunz is a paleoanthropologist who investigates the evolution of human development by studying the growth patterns and morphology of humans, their fossil ancestors, and primate relatives. Philipp is a specialist for the virtual reconstruction of fossils, and the statistical analysis of shape — a set of methods called geometric morphometrics.

Research Projects

Dr. Gunz's research explores different aspects of developmental and evolutionary shape changes in the living and fossil primates — the evolution of the face, as well as subtle shape differences among teeth, and the bony labyrinth. One key research focus is the evolution of the brain and its endocranial imprint in the skull. Changes in endocranial shape observed in the hominin lineage may be linked to evolutionary changes to brain organization. However, brain tissues do not fossilize, making the underlying biology difficult to study. Philipp’s research tackles this challenge through an interdisciplinary approach that integrates analyses of fossil skulls, ancient genomes, brain imaging, and gene expression.
