Josephine M. Pemberton FRS[3] is a British evolutionary biologist. She is Chair of Natural History at the University of Edinburgh,[5] where she conducts research in parentage analysis, pedigree reconstruction, inbreeding depression, parasite resistance, and quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection in natural populations.[6] She has worked primarily on long-term studies of soay sheep[7][8] on St Kilda, and red deer on the island of Rùm.[9][10][11][12]

Education

Pemberton was educated at the University of Oxford (where she read Zoology[1]) and the University of Reading where she was awarded a PhD in 1983 for research on the population genetics of fallow deer[13] supervised by Robert H. Smith.[4]

Research and career

After her PhD, she was a postdoctoral researcher at University College London and the University of Cambridge.[6] This was followed by appointments as a BBSRC Advanced Fellow in Cambridge and Edinburgh, before being appointed a Lecturer in 1994 at the University of Edinburgh,[6] where she has worked ever since. Her research has been funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and Natural Environment Research Council (NERC).[6]

Awards and honours

Pemberton was awarded the Molecular Ecology Prize in 2011[1] and EMBO Membership in 2014.[2] She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2017.[3]

She was awarded the Darwin-Wallace Medal in 2018.[14] and was named Chair of Natural History in 2020.
