In the first pre-print from the lab, we resolve a key problem in development + evolution: how do we quantify heterochrony and link temporal variation to phenotype?

A collaborative effort led by @bournsupremacy , a fantastic PhD in my group.
www.biorxiv.org Quantitative mapping of heterochrony to species-specific phenotypes The genetic program of animal development is conserved, but its rate of execution varies across species. Heterochrony, shifts in the relative timing of developmental events, generates phenotypic...
