NSF Young Investigator

该研究人员将开发综合方法来确定进化关系，确定进化事件的年代，并建立定量方法来区分化石记录中的真实模式和人工模式。将使用我实验室收集的分子数据、计算机和数学模型以及经典的古生物学数据。这项工作将在加州大学洛杉矶分校完成。

This investigator will develop integrated approaches to the determination of evolutionary relationships, the dating of evolutionary events, and the establishment of quantitative methods for distinguishing real from artifactual patterns in the fossil record. Molecular data collected in my laboratory, computer and mathematical models, and classical paleontological data will be used. This work will be done at the University of California, Los Angeles.
