Phylogenomics of Portullugo & beyond

Methods for reconstructing evolutionary histories from phylogenomic and museum-specimen data.

Evolutionary trees — phylogenies — are the starting point for both asking and answering questions in comparative biology. My work develops and applies methods for reconstructing phylogenies from genome-scale and museum-specimen data, including mixed-type sequence data integration, target-enrichment, and reduced-representation sequencing.
