Chad Sockwell, a Scientific Computing doctoral student, recently won the outstanding poster award at Los Alamos National Laboratory’s student research symposium; his poster was recognized in a meeting that had over 300 entries. Sockwell received the outstanding poster award for his research and presentation in the Earth and Space Sciences category. His research entitled, Exponential Integrator - Krylov Methods for Mimetic Ocean Models, is part of a one year project Sockwell is completing at the lab.

FSU’s Center for Anchored Phylogenomics changes the way we study evolution

Thanks to the development of a specialized gene sampling technique by center co-directors and husband-and-wife Alan and Emily Lemmon, FSU researchers have finally begun to chip away at this conundrum — and in doing so, they just might have helped to change the way that we study evolutionary biology forever.

For decades, the process of generating phylogenies (sprawling evolutionary trees) had been tiresome, time consuming and often prohibitively expensive, with hundreds of thousands of dollars being poured into relatively narrow individual studies.
