What if the tree of life is not slowing down, but constantly reshaping itself through a dance of persistence and extinction? Well @ignacioqevo , who’s currently teaching Probabilistic inference of PCM with us, authored a new paper in @PNASNews And yes, it’s as cool as it sounds.

How do traits co-evolve across lineages, and what can that tell us about evolution itself? In this course, we explore multivariate phylogenetic comparative methods using the mvMORPH R package.

The Urban Exploration Project is a collaborative initiative developed in close partnership with the National Geographic Society. It combines the powers of inclusive community building, cutting-edge technology, local empowerment, education and storytelling, to forge innovative pathways towards sustainable human&ndash;wildlife coexistence in the world&rsquo;s unprotected areas, complementing the established 30x30 Initiative. Specifically, the project aims to produce a holistic understanding of animal behaviour in human-modified landscapes, by building a global network of ~250 field teams over ~10 years, to track ~10,000 animals across gradients of urbanisation worldwide. This major collaborative effort will fill critical evidence gaps on human&ndash;wildlife interactions, enabling innovative, context-appropriate and scalable approaches to environmental planning, conservation management, and policy making. This is an exciting opportunity for candidates interested in movement ecology, animal tracking, conservation and sustainability science, environmental planning, human&ndash;wildlife coexistence, project management and/or consortium-style, big-data research. The post&rsquo;s primary duties are to provide assistance with pilot research activities and project management.
