Abstract DBI 9750079 John Huelsenbeck This action funds an NSF/Alfred P. Sloan Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Molecular Evolution for 1997. These fellowships support studies involving the theoretical, comparative, computational, and/or experimental analyses of biological patterns and processes at the molecular level within the framework of organismic evolutionary change and adaptation. These studies also include the use of molecular data to address broader evolutionary questions. Each fellowship supports a research and training plan to be carried out in a sponsoring laboratory. The research and training plan for this fellowship is entitled "Testing Models of Cladogenesis in a Phylogenetic Context." Phylogenetic trees (diagrams depicting the genealogical relationships of species) can be used to examine the process of speciation and extinction. This research focuses on how speciation and extinction rates can be estimated from phylogenetic trees of living and fossil bivalves.

摘要DBI 9750079 John Huelsenbeck 这一行动为1997年的NSF/Alfred P. Sloan分子进化博士后研究奖学金提供资金。 这些奖学金支持研究涉及的理论，比较，计算，和/或实验分析的生物模式和过程在分子水平的框架内器官的进化变化和适应。 这些研究还包括使用分子数据来解决更广泛的进化问题。 每项研究金资助一项研究和培训计划，该计划将在一个赞助实验室进行。 该研究金的研究和培训计划题为“在系统发生背景下测试分支发生模型”。系统发生树（描绘物种系谱关系的图表）可以用来研究物种形成和灭绝的过程。 本研究的重点是如何物种形成和灭绝率可以估计从生活和化石双壳类的系统发育树。
