Come explore the frontier of PCM with us! @mpiresbr2 and I host the symposium “What we can and cannot know through current and upcoming Phylogenetic Comparative Methods” at the joint @Evol_mtg in Montréal and want your views in that discussion! #evolution #phylo #PCM #Evol2024

BoB quickly became one of my favorite conferences. Had a great time last week with many old and new friends and collaborators.
So many great lepidopterists together in one place! #bob2023

Our study on #butterfly #evolution, #hostplants & #ranges is now formally out! We built a phylogeny of 2000 sp and found butterflies originated in N. America 100M years ago, likely fed on legumes. ~100 scientists from 28 countries contributed. Thanks all! nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

#Macroevolutionary perspective on plant #scent and #plant_insect_interactions! Now online and will be open access soon! A great team to work with! @orlando_schwery @Breanna_Sipley @mpiresbr2 Yan Yang @RobertoRebolloH

We did a thing: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Working on #plant-#insect interactions & floral volatiles? Interested in adding #macroevolution #phylogenetics? Perhaps our review could serve as a good entry-point! With @Breanna_Sipley @mpiresbr2 Yan Yang @RobertoRebolloH & @PengjuanZ

New paper with a really cool gang! Evolution of insect-plant interactions from a new perspective for me. Floral volatiles! Thanks @orlando_schwery for leading this work.
The paper should be open access but maybe not quite yet, so let us know if you want a pdf.

This was such a fun collab! Thanks @trayc7 and @wadedismukes for inviting @landismj @DavidHembry and myself to join you! I hope young researchers find this paper useful. We wrote it with you in mind.
DM for PDF

Really honored to be part of this review on cophylogenetics--where the field has been, what methods are new, and the strengths and limitations of what we can do right now--with @wadedismukes @mpiresbr2 @trayc7 @landismj in @AnnualReviews. DM me for PDF.

Happy to share our new study with @HMorlon & @bayesiancook. We introduce Birth-Death Diffusion models where lineage-specific diversification rates diffuse continuously, providing a complete and fine-grained picture of a phylogeny’s diversification history doi.org/10.1101/2022.08.09.5…

I finally made it to Cleveland (after a few flight delays and changes), so there will be a talk tomorrow! 😅
Really looking forward to joining #Evol2022

Gente, eu to num podcast! Obrigada @camilasberaldo e @alociencia pelo convite! Foi mto legal bater esse papo sobre o meu trabalho.
Faz tempo que eu quero comunicar minha pesquisa em português e esse foi um belo pontapé 😁

Novo episódio no ar! Como a interação entre plantas e borboletas nos revelam conhecimentos sobre evolução?
Ouça e entenda! :)

Sex-ed in Latin America. @delfinagomeza @VictoriaBxE @Jpobletea will you implement gender-inclusive sex-ed courses in schools? Sex-ed teaches young people to prioritize gender equality and reduce abuse. Act now for the future of our girls and our countries #EmpowerGirlsNOW
