We are interested in understanding the process of biological diversification. We study how the interplay among speciation, extinction, phenotypic evolution and dispersal generated biodiversity. We analyze molecular, phenotypic, and environmental data using phylogenetic and comparative methods to study the tempo and mode of evolution. Our work is highly integrative and aims for the unification of evolutionary and ecological theories of biodiversity.
