Research in the Giribet Lab is driven by an interest in animal diversity and evolution. To understand how this diversity came to be, we focus on reconstructing the chronicle of animal life. With an array of data and approaches, we investigate relationships of invertebrate phyla and the timing of their diversification. We currently use mostly genomic and transcriptomic data to address these questions. We then use the phylogenies to study different aspects of organismal biology, such as biogeography, phylogeography, evolution of shape, among others.
