Belinda Chang is an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto’s Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and the Department of Cell and Systems Biology. Professor Chang obtained her undergraduate degree at Princeton University and Ph.D. at Harvard University. Professor Chang also completed postdoctoral research at Harvard University and Rockefeller University. The focus of her research is on the visual adaptations of vertebrates and how visual proteins function within the context of evolution. Through collaborative and individual efforts, Professor Chang has published numerous papers about evolutionary biology including a recent paper examining the evolutionary links between geckos and snakes. She has made a significant contribution to the study of vertebrate visual systems in the context of evolutionary theory. Historically underrepresented in the S.T.E.M. fields, Professor Chang has also contributed to gender diversity within the scientific community, and in particular, the field of evolutionary biology.
