Estimating the rate of quantitative trait evolution in the presence of gene tree discordance by calculating likelihoods across trees
Quantitative traits provide insights into how phenotypes evolve across species. However, standard comparative methods often assume a single species tree and overlook the discordant gene tree histories...

Happy that our new paper is out, led by super-postbacc Daniel Rickert (now a PhD student at UNC). Also kind of excited to have my first TPB paper... 1/2 "Inconsistency of parsimony under the multispecies coalescent"

Inconsistency of parsimony under the multispecies coalescent
While it is known that parsimony can be statistically inconsistent under certain models of evolution due to high levels of homoplasy, the consistency …

New paper with Sarthak Mishra! Maybe it will bring you some joy given all this (waves arms around). "Estimating recombination using only the allele frequency spectrum" 1/2

Estimating recombination using only the allele frequency spectrum
Standard methods for estimating the population recombination parameter, rho, are dependent on sampling individual genotypes and calculating various types of disequilibria. However, recent machine lear...
