Emmanuel Gheerbrant is a paleomammalogist at the CNRS (MNHN,
Paris), specialist of Cretaceous and Paleogene mammals. He works especially on
the origin and initial radiation of the eutherian and placental mammals from the
Old World. His field work is focused on several mammal localities from the Late
Cretaceous, Paleocene, Eocene and early Oligocene from France, Spain, Romania,
Oman and Morocco. Besides systematics and phylogeny, he is interested in the
early paleobiogeographical history of the African placentals and of the whole
insular Africa.
