Phylogenetic Biogeography Workshop @ WUSTL You are invited to participate in a Phylogenetic Biogeography Workshop hosted at Washington University in St. Louis from June 4 - 6, 2024. The deadline to apply is March 6, 2024. This free, 3-day workshop will cover the fundamentals of applying phylogenetic models of historical biogeography for ancestral state estimation, divergence time estimation, and hypothesis testing using the Bayesian phylogenetics package, RevBayes. Instructors will include Isaac Lichter Marck (Cal Academy), Fábio Mendes (WUSTL), Michael Landis (WUSTL), Sarah Swiston (WUSTL), and Felipe Zapata (UCLA). Some familiarity with programming and phylogenetics is required. We expect most participants will be graduate student or postdoctoral researchers, but advanced undergraduates, curators, faculty, etc. are also encouraged to apply. The workshop will provide instruction, refreshments, and 4 nights of shared-room housing, free-of-charge. Students will need to bring their own laptops, handle their own meal plans, and arrange their own transportation to participate in the workshop. This workshop is made possible with generous funds from the NSF on the "Origin and Evolution of Hawaiian Plants" project.
