Tree of life
This week we explore the evolutionary tree of life using a newly released tool by OneZoom. We dive in and out and back in again to different groups of animals on the tree including dogs, eagles, bats, and beetles. Your mind will boggle at the simultaneous complexity and simplicity this perspective gives us.
Catch the replay on:
A deeper dive: The OneZoom project is described in this paper, Dynamic visualisation of million-tip trees: The OneZoom project by Yan Wong and James Rosindell. It came out just last month in the journal Methods in Ecology and Evolution.
