About Christine Marie Janis

Christine Marie Janis, With an exceptional h-index of 59 and a recent h-index of 34 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Brown University, specializes in the field of mammal paleobiology, vertebrate evolution.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Why the short face? The face lengths of sthenurine kangaroos scale with negative allometry

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?

Hop, Walk or Bound? Limb Proportions in Kangaroos and the Probable Locomotion of the extinct genus Protemnodon

Proportional variation and scaling in the hindlimbs of hopping mammals, including convergent evolution in argygrolagids and jerboas

Evolution of Cenozoic Land Mammal Faunas and Ecosystems: 25 Years of the NOW Database of Fossil Mammals

Myth of the QANTAS leap: perspectives on the evolution of kangaroo locomotion

A timescale for placental mammal diversification based on Bayesian modeling of the fossil record

The origin and early history of NOW as it happened
