📢 Tired of choosing between fossils to incorporate into your phylogenetic analysis? Us too.
💥 Check out our new preprint on incorporating stratigraphic ranges into the FBD model, implemented in BEAST2. We explore how using ranges affects the inference of dog 🐶 and penguin 🐧 trees 🌳

The Palaeo@Leeds crew are on their way to #PalAss24 in Erlangen. Make sure you look out for posters by @sauropodlets.bsky.social ; @annabel-nicholls.bsky.social; @dralexdunhill.bsky.social & Lila Blake as well as a keynote symposium talk by @BaranKarapunar - all focusing on extinction 💀
