A central issue in evolutionary biology is whether differences between species gradually develop over millions of years, or quickly upon speciation - a pattern known as "punctuated equilibrium". I use computation-intensive analyses of molecular phylogenetic data to estimate rates of evolution: speciation rates, extinction rates, and rates of gradual and speciational change of morphology, gene expression, co-expression, gene family size, sequence divergence etc.
