Dear colleagues,

Transmitting Science is offering the online course: "Morphological 
Phylogenetics: Principles, Applications, and Techniques".

Course webpage: 
https://www.transmittingscience.com/courses/evolution/morphological-phylogenetics-principles-applications-techniques/

This course will focus on the analysis of morphological data (and 
combining morphological data with molecular data) using multiple 
optimality criteria for phylogenetic inference. We will discuss the best 
available approaches to construct morphological data sets and their 
impact on phylogenies. We will follow with theory and hands-on practice 
of phylogenetic programs using Maximum Parsimony, Maximum Likelihood, 
and Bayesian inference.

Participants will learn how to combine morphological and molecular data 
for total evidence analyses, how to conduct time-calibrations using tip 
and node dating, different birth-death models, morphological clocks and 
combined evidence relaxed clock analyses.

Format: Live online sessions (sessions will be recorded)
Dates: March 2nd, 4th, 6th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 16th, 18th, and 20th, 2026.
Times: 16:00 to 19:30 (Madrid time zone).

Best regards,

Haris
