TL,DR:
* Telford’s expertise and voice shine through
* I think fossils are more useful than portrayed, and would have represented historical figures in evolutionary biology differently
* It’s a fun and informative guide to the wonder and wizardry of phylogenetics ✨

This would be pure simulation though, rather than based on an existing empirical phylogeny

gen3sis could be an option. Alongside a handful of publications, lead developer Oskar Hagen is giving an introductory talk about it tomorrow:
🚨Palaeoverse Lecture Series🚨
🗓️30th October 2025, 15:00 UTC🗓️

Join us next week to hear from Dr Oskar Hagen, on “Mechanistic biodiversity modelling with gen3sis: population-based simulations across regional and global domains to deep and shallow time” 🌐
