We use an integrative approach to studying how phenotypes evolve and diversify, and how they function in a comparative context. Toward this end, we integrate measurement of organismal form, growth, performance and kinematics both in the field and through lab experimentation, and ecology using phylogenies and statistics. The subjects of most of this research are Squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) and frogs.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Click on the links below to find out more:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3810bf; font-size: 18px;\"><a style=\"color: #3810bf;\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/research\/research-techniques\/\"><strong>Techniques <\/strong><strong>That We Use<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3810bf; font-size: 18px;\"><a style=\"color: #3810bf;\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/research-subjects\/\"><strong>Animals That we Study<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3810bf; font-size: 18px;\"><a style=\"color: #3810bf;\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/complex-form-function-ecology-relationships\/\"><strong>Complex Form-Function Relationships<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #3810bf; font-size: 18px;\"><a style=\"color: #3810bf;\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/body-shape\/\"><strong>Evolution and Functional Implications of Body Shape<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>The research in the Evolutionary Function Morphology Laboratory is generously supported by Clark University and the National Science Foundation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-73\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/885\/2024\/10\/Clark-Logo-only.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"155\" height=\"162\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-74\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/885\/2024\/10\/NSF_logo_160.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/885\/2024\/10\/NSF_logo_160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/wordpress.clarku.edu\/pbergmann\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/885\/2024\/10\/NSF_logo_160-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 160px) 100vw, 160px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6>\u00a9 2005-2016 Philip J.
