Late Lunch Talk by Mark Ravinet.
This Friday we will focus on a book chapter from Symonds and Blomberg (2014) on Phylogenetic Generalised Least Squares from a recently published book on phylogenetic comparative methods. This will be an introduction for a discussion on the use of appropriate methodology when it comes to comparative methods. If you yourself are wondering what to use in your own research, come join the discussion!
By Sigrun Jonasdottir
This week we will discuss a paper on patterns of opercle shape evolution in a cichlid radiation by Wilson et al. which use geometric morphometrics and the comparative methods to draw some interesting conclusions.
"Can hybridization be detected between African wolf and sympatric canids?"
Raoul Wolf, PhD student AQUA, IBV
This week we'll discuss a recent paper in Systematic Biology on the use of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Model to investigate patterns of adaptive evolution in phylogenies.
Friday, corner room @11 as usual.
This week we will discuss a paper on transposable elements as agents of rapid adaptation may explain the genetic paradox of invasive species that was recently published in Molecular Ecology by Stapley and colleagues.

Late Lunch Talk by Alexander Suh from the Uppsala University, Sweden
This week we will discuss a paper from MBE 2014 by Simon Martin and collaborators. The study evaluates the use of different statistical methods for detecting introgression and applies these to data on the heliconius butterfly complex.
