This project aims to clarify the evolutionary relationships among deuterostomes by analyzing genomic and anatomical data from both living species and ancient fossils. It focuses on understanding the evolution of body plans through advanced imaging and phylogenetic methods.
Deuterostomes are a major group of animals that include creatures as diverse as sea stars, acorn worms, and humans.
Though seeming very different, these animals have long been grouped together taxonomically and the nature of their ancient ancestor has been greatly controversial.
However, new research suggests that the deuterostome grouping might be false, leaving our understanding of their evolutionary relationships and evolutionary origins in complete disarray. I propose to resolve this controv…
