Funded Activity Summary

Advances in Phylogenetic Comparative Methods. An understanding of our biota is impossible without understanding evolution, and developing ways to study it. The outcomes will be useful for biologists conducting theoretically important projects: understanding how and why species have evolved to be the way they are. In addition, the research will be of use to biologists studying more applied questions, such as how to predict whether certain species are likely to become endangered, go extinct, or whether certain species are likely to become invasive and feral. This research will maintain Australia as a leader in evolutionary biology by cementing strong collaborations with world-leading biologists and statisticians.
