Alan’s research focuses on improving methods for making inferences about evolutionary trees—which appear in many areas of biology, from tracing epidemics to understanding cell lineages in tumors. Specifically, Alan is utilizing probabilistic models and mathematical structures and tools to provide novel insights into the genealogical histories of lineages sampled across closely related species.
