Calibrating the recent evolution of protozoan pathogens using viral evolutionary time-scales KU Leuven
Exploring natural genetic variation has been instrumental to understand the processes that shape organismal diversity on Earth. Phylogenetics, the study of the evolutionary history and relationships among (groups of) individuals, is one of the most influential techniques to reconstruct the tree of life. This technique is especially powerful when external information, such as fossil data, can be included to time evolutionary events. ...
