Gregory Donald Edgecombe FRS[4] is a merit researcher in the department of Earth Sciences at the Natural History Museum, London.[5][6] He is a leading figure in understanding the evolution of arthropods, their position in animal evolution and the integration of fossil data into analyses of animal phylogeny.[4] As a palaeontologist, he is also an authority on the systematics of centipedes – and a morphologist whose work contributes to the growth and methods of analysis of molecular datasets for inferring evolutionary relationships.[4][1][7]
