Avian brain evolution and higher level phylogenetics of modern birds (AVIAN EVOLUTION)
Start date: Nov 8, 2010, End date: Oct 7, 2012,
"The evolution of modern birds is still poorly understood. My recent phylogenetic results constitute the first step towards a new picture of the history of modern birds and demonstrate that the incorporation of key fossil taxa into phylogenetic analyses permits to elucidate hypotheses of relationship supported on the basis of extant taxa alone. Milner and colleagues recently investigated the brain ...
