Very excited to launch our new website. Still a work in progress, but check out https://t.co/iCgnsj18bl to learn more about what we do! @BioplatformsAus
Our preprint of Mammalia-wide evolution -- announcing a new tree of life for 5911 species based on a single DNA matrix and fossil node- and tip-dating. We show how ecology (vagility, latitude, diurnality) best explains living diversity & speciation rates. https://t.co/0dT6ZUPNSV
