Pre-Christmas moleclular-clock shenanigans with @sabifo4.bsky.social @mariodosreis.bsky.social @zihengyang.bsky.social

It is #WorldAIDSDay! For this special #ScienceInContext Dr Fabricia Nascimento & Prof Sanjay Mehta join @eonore.bsky.social to speak about phylodynamic inference, HIV transmission, migration, genome sequencing & ethics @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social @ucsandiego.bsky.social 🧵1/2 youtu.be/SzdAhdjJuAE

Applications for the London TREES DTP programme are now open: www.trees-dla.ac.uk/news/applica... We have a project on Bayesian phylogenetics! 😀 www.trees-dla.ac.uk/projects/int...

Frustrated that MCMCtree does not have complex substitution models? The IQ-tree team has now developed IQ2MC, an interface for seamless integration of IQ-tree's substitution models with MCMCtree's fast Bayesian pipeline for clock dating. Read the preprint here: ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

A reminder that we have two open PhD projects on Bayesian phylogenetics in the lab: One with the new TREE Doctoral Landscape Awards: www.trees-dla.ac.uk/projects/int... (deadline 20th Jan) And another with CSC: www.findaphd.com/phds/project... (deadline 29th Jan)

So excited to see this paper finally published! 🥳 This was the main focus of my PhD and demonstrates the application of model adequacy for models of morphological evolution. 1/n academic.oup.com/sysbio/advan...

Over 120 PhD projects have now been released as part of the new London Doctoral Landscape Awards, for start in Oct 2025. www.trees-dla.ac.uk/projects

Our paper on Bayesian selection of relaxed clock models is out in Systematic Biology! This is the work of our PhD student Muthukumaran Panchaksaram, in collaboration with Lucas Freitas from Brazil. doi.org/10.1093/sysb...
