For a compressed version of information about me, please see my CV . I am a professor at U of Tennessee, Knoxville , in the department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology . In my lab, we develop and apply phylogenetic tools to address evolutionary questions.
Some recent work from the last few years includes some of the papers below; go to my CV for a more complete list.
They are usually generated by a direct research need: how can we tell whether this group is evolving at a different rate? How can we choose between phylogeographic models without limiting ourselves to a pre-selected small set? Is there hidden variation in states that lets some herbaceous plants retain the ability to make wood while others have lost this ability? By developing techniques to address these questions, we both solve the original question and enable other biologists to use these new techniques to
