Deuterostome Evolution: Large Data Set Analysis

摘要

This award allowed us to develop novel hardware for phylogenetics, collect genomic data and produce several phylogenies of deuterostome organisms, communicate the results publicly, release software into the public domain, publish textbooks and papers, and prepare for the next research projects. There are no resulting subject inventions to report. We review these activities in three sections: 1) Hardware and software and development; 2) Evolutionary biology research; 3) Our proposed future direction, predictive analysis of pathogens in support of the NASA mission.
