We're composed of: John Aston (Warwick) Dorothy Buck (Imperial) Nick Jones (Oxford) Vincent Macaulay (Glasgow) John Moriarty (Manchester) And we're a mix of biologically inclined statisticians, mathematicians and physicists interested in new directions in the study of shape evolution. We've been funded by the EPSRC to pursue questions of this nature.
We're organising a two day workshop on the 27/28th of September
on the topic
of new approaches to shape evolution. This will be held in the Physics
department in Oxford. This Workshop will bring
together researchers from several theoretical and application areas to
discuss new approaches to the evolution of shapes such as: continuous
biological data; bone morphology; and speech evolution along linguistic
phylogenies. The aim of the Workshop is to discuss possible directions for
the development of new methods to investigate shape evolution, informed by
related existing approaches and with a focus on applications.
Our first paper can be found here.
