Congratulations to Brad Nelson!

Congratulations to Brad Nelson, who recently became the first Master's graduate from the Brown Phyleaux lab. Brad's thesis includes two very nice chapters on improving Bayesian branch-length inference by using informed priors and applying posterior predictive approaches to assess the reliability of an inferred squamate phylogeny.
